6 Crisp air and snowy landscapes greet visitors to Milwaukee this time of year. The heartiest enjoy outdoor recreation and sights, but there's plenty of indoor activities to keep everyone entertained. Milwaukee has wonderful restaurants in neighborhoods all across the city. You'll find cuisines from around the world. Our museums warmly welcome winter visitors. The Milwaukee Art Museum, Discovery World, The Milwaukee Public Museum and the Betty Brinn Children's Museum are some of the favorites. And, look to our universities and neighborhoods for smaller museums which are gems of culture and information. As the cooler weather sets in, the performing arts heat up. Our symphony, ballet and theatre companies are all world class. Milwaukee weather pushes many inside, and during our winter, inside is a fine place to be. Sincerely, Tom Barrett, Mayor As the temperature turns chilly, it's time to welcome winter. While Milwaukee winters may be cold and snowy, don't let that small obstacle keep you from enjoying Milwaukee County! Acquaint yourself with downtown Milwaukee's County Parks and enjoy the festive holiday lights. Famous local hot spots include Cathedral Square, Zeidler Union Square and Pere Marquette Park. You also can head to Red Arrow Park and skate at the outdoor ice rink. On days that are too cold to spend outside, explore Milwaukee's breweries and enjoy the fun tours and tastings. Follow up with a visit to Brady Street or the Historic Third Ward for a meal, some window-shopping and a walk through one of the numerous art galleries. As you plan your Milwaukee visit, KEY Milwaukee is an outstanding resource. No matter what you choose to do in Milwaukee County, I hope you enjoy your time with us.
