Art lovers of all ages will enjoy this beloved summer tradition at the Milwaukee Art Museum. Celebrating its 60th year, the Lakefront Festival of Art offers a full weekend of creativity, music, food, and family fun — all right on the shores of Lake Michigan. Why it’s great for kids and families:

  • Hands-on art projects perfect for little makers
  • 145 artist booths to explore and inspire creativity
  • Live music and performances from local acts
  • Drop-in gallery tours inside the Milwaukee Art Museum
  • Food, treats, and drinks for all ages (plus wine and beer gardens for grown-ups)

Families can roam the festival grounds, visit the museum’s kid-friendly galleries, and try out creative activities that make art accessible and fun. It’s a beautiful, engaging way to introduce kids to the arts—and spend a summer day by the lake.
