The arts build community.

Engaging all the senses

The arts are good for the mind and the soul. From engaging performances at the J and around Milwaukee to our seasonal exhibits in the Surlow Promenade, we invite you to explore the local and global arts.

From staged readings to symphonic performances, we curate a diverse selection of performances to create meaningful moments for our community.

The Maurice S. Surlow Promenade (located off of the Marcus Pavilion entrance) rotates unique exhibits throughout the year and is free and open to our community.

Milwaukee has a vibrant and exciting artistic community, and we are thrilled to regularly partner with leaders on the Milwaukee arts scene.
