A Little Culture with Your Barbecue?



Tim and I love the Milwaukee Art Museum, and we make it a special point to visit it pretty much any time we visit the folks. Situated right on the lakefront, it has a wonderful modern collection, great sculpture, and a superb Flemish collection -- and those are just my favorites. They also have, of course, rotating or visiting collections. The museum was undergoing some renovation last time we were home, so we didn't get to see the full museum; we can't wait to visit it again to see what's changed. Group tours can be arranged, but need a little advance work, so let me know as soon as possible if you're interested.
