Fight the FOMO with our guide to the Great Milwaukee Summer. We've got the hottest places to eat, drink, hang out, and all the things you love to do. Brought to you by Geis Garage Doors and UPAF (United Performing Arts Fund)! 

The first of three Art Blaze events is canceled for this evening due to the strong possibility of inclement weather. The free art-meets-beach party returns on Thursday, Aug. 7, and Thursday, Aug. 21.

During these events, McKinley Beach will be transformed into a haven of art and music. Families can participate in interactive art, engage with local artisans and vendors, make s’mores at the bonfires, or simply relax with friends and family.
