Milwaukee & the Arts?
 

Hi,
We have an afternoon in Milwaukee... during Labor Day Weekend.
Is there an area of the city that has art galleries......and any suggestions for lunch?

Re: lunch--what type of food, what budget?

The Third Ward, south of DT, has several galleries and interesting shops.

A nice lunch......price doesn't matter.
Type of food? Anything but Sushi!

If you have a street/streets that you could suggest for galleries....thanks!

In the Third Ward, some streets are Broadway, Water, Milwaukee, Chicago. Restaurants I like there include Sauce, Third Ward Cafe, Coquette Cafe, The Palms.

There is a terrific building you MUST see...
Milaukee Art Museum-
www.mam.org
Very modern building addition designed by Santiago Calatrava. with this unique "roof" that has wings !!! that open and close....
check out website....There are building tours available even on Labor Day weekend,
Hope you have great time...
the same man designed a pedestrian bridge over the Sacramento River in Redding CA beautiful "winglike structure.(also designed the metro staion in Milan)

Thanks Abram & Traveler...I've made maps to visit both 3rd Ward & MAM.
