Travel.
The Madison airport is only 6.5 miles from the Wisconsin Historical Society. Taking a local cab or any car sharing service works very well. Direct flights from several midwest cities (MSP, DTW, ORD, DFW) are available. Driving and parking on campus is easier on the weekends. Map of parking near the Memorial Union can be found here.
