Visiting Milwaukee

Milwaukee last proudly hosted the Games in 1997 – but the opportunity to create a lasting community experience has never been greater. Together, we’ll build an experience that transcends the Games – one that strengthens our entire Jewish community, empowers our next generation of leaders, and celebrates our values and traditions.

Metropolitan Milwaukee is a vibrant, diverse, and exciting region. Rich with arts, culture, and recreation – Milwaukee transcends its industrial and agricultural roots and today enjoys a quiet reputation as one of the country’s most unheralded destinations. From the beauty of the Lake Michigan shores, to the internationally acclaimed Milwaukee Art Museum, our community enjoys summers overflowing with festivals, sports, arts and entertainment. To learn more about Milwaukee as a tourist destination, please visit our friends at VisitMilwaukee.

Milwaukee celebrates a strong and diverse Jewish community, served by passionate leaders who are committed to our spiritual, cultural, and educational well-being. To learn more about the Milwaukee Jewish Community, and the breadth of programs and constituents who serve the community, please visit our partners at the Milwaukee Jewish Federation.
