It's a time to celebrate the variety of cultures, art, entertainment and cuisine that people from around the world have brought to Milwaukee. A number of factors contribute to the success of festivals in Milwaukee. We have splendid locations at our lakefront and downtown to hold big events. We have visitors and locals who turn out every year. Perhaps most importantly, we have dedicated volunteers who make sure the traditions continue. The cultural festivals in Milwaukee honor traditions and celebrate the arts. Unique dance and musical performances, history and great food are all shared with festival goers. While many attendees have family connections to the celebrated cultures, the festivals embrace everyone. We celebrate our family roots and we invite everyone to join in! Sincerely, Tom Barrett, Mayor It's finally that time of year again, summer time! As the sun shines down on the county, it's time to get outdoors and experience everything Milwaukee County has to offer. Milwaukee host many festivals each month. June starts off with PrideFest, followed by Polish Fest. Be sure to also check out Locust Street Festival, Summer Soulstice festival and the Lakefront Festival of Art, which has been named one of the top 25 art festi- vals in the country and is a great opportunity to enjoy the lakefront and the Milwaukee Art Museum. Let's not forget about all the wonderful things the Milwaukee parks have offer. Head to Bradford Beach for volleyball games or to build a sandcastle with your family. From golf courses to bike and hiking paths to sun-filled picnic areas, our Milwaukee County Parks have something for everyone! Wherever your summer may take you, KEY Milwaukee is a great resource for helping you plan your adven- tures. Sincerely, Chris Abele, Milwaukee County Executive
