Call for Placemakers for West Wisconsin Avenue
Tents: Pioneering Public Space
Pioneering Idea Submissions due November 13, 2013
A rejuvenating weekend of overnight urban camping to make Wisconsin Avenue feel like home.

As part of ‘Creational Trails, we are pioneering public space on West Wisconsin Avenue in Downtown for the summer in 2014 as an extension of the many gorgeous existing recreational trails and an expression of the inspiring cultures throughout Milwaukee.
