Paper is an important industry in Appleton, Wisconsin, and the Paper Discovery Center gives visitors the opportunity to understand papermaking and its role in the community. The museum and workshop center offers tours of the exhibits, interpretive displays, hands-on workshops, and a research center for visitors to explore. One of the best parts of a visit to the Paper Discovery Center is the Purdy-Weissenborn Paper Lab where you can create your very own sheet of paper, from beginning to end. Children will enjoy the many summer camps that the discovery center holds.
