About The Children's Museum of La Crosse

Ann Christianson

Ann, a long-time resident of Wisconsin, has strong family ties in the La Crosse area. As a dedicated fundraising professional and nonprofit leader, she channels her passion toward organizations that prioritize children, the arts, and literacy. Ann believes that kids possess a magical perspective on the world, freely exploring and creating. For her, there’s no better place than the Children’s Museum, where the mission ensures that more children have more opportunities to simply be kids and play together.

Andrea Higgins

Andrea hails from a suburb of Milwaukee, but has called the beautiful La Crosse area home since 2006. The majority of Andrea’s grown-up life has consisted of working in the college/university arena including time at UW-Parkside, Western Illinois University, University of Miami-Coral Gables, and UW-La Crosse. The best word to describe her excitement for things at the Children's Museum of La Crosse is 'supercalifragilisticexpialidocious'! There is so much wonder in watching kids play, and we can truly be brought back to a simpler time when we adults join in on the fun! Andrea and her family can be found at their small business, enjoying time outside, and making fun memories on this adventure called life.

Meghan Schoh

Meghan is kid-at-heart born and raised in this beautiful area we call the Driftless. She is a mom of 4 busy kiddos, 5 if you include her husband, who have all grown up enjoying The Children's Museum of La Crosse. Besides being a huge fan of hockey, travel, wine, and adventures, she also loves getting creative! She is ecstatic to be a part of the museum team and to be able to utilize her experience with families, local businesses, marketing, design, and event planning - thanks to years of fun at Coulee Parenting Connection!
