Kickoff Event Sunday May 6, 2012 11am-4pm
Admission is free at all five museums and continuous shuttle service will be available.
The chef competition will feature 6 Wisconsin-based chefs competing for top honors. Each chef will be offered a whole heritage breed hog sustainably raised on pastureland in beautiful Southern Wisconsin. It will then be up to each chef to plan and prepare 5 to 7 small dishes to be judged by attendees and a panel of professional judges. After the votes are tallied, a winner will be crowned and awarded a one of a kind SloPig cast iron pan poured just for this event.

You’ll be a believer in Brewer fever.
Just another day at the office, except this one had tricycles.
On the eve of the 2011 Tour de France, Hanson Dodge Creative decided to hold its own cycling event to test the courage, conviction and mettle of its employees. On June 30th, those brave enough to answer the challenge gathered in the parking lot and courtyard of America’s leading active lifestyle agency. Two unique heats were held; a grueling time trial race and a blistering out-and-back bracketed sprint race. The speed, endurance and aerodynamic efficiency of the contestants would be channeled by specially-outfitted aero-Trikesters, supplied to us by our long-time collaborators, Trek Bikes. This video is a record of this historic event.

Everyone go vote for this! I want it to become a shirt so bad.
Some shots will always be there, like this one of the buildings on the Milwaukee River. Just stand in the right place, that’s all. July 2011.

Milwaukee, you just might actually be America’s most beautiful city. She definitely has the most beautiful apartments.
