Foundation Pros of Wisconsin

Continue the long tradition of the Wisconsin State Fair by joining in on the eleven-day festivities in West Allis, right outside of the Milwaukee city limits. Since 1851, this festival has drawn in vendors and citizens from all across the state. Yearly venues include regional and national bands, carnival rides, specialty vendors, agricultural exhibits and a variety of food and drink, including the popular cream puffs.

Hi Hat Lounge sets the feel for the night with excellent mood lighting and spectacular artwork. This versitile nightlife venue opens for lunch on weekdays and brunch on weekends, and stays open until 2:00AM every night. Enjoy food from the full menu, featuring typical American fare like burgers and salads. Listen to a live DJ every Friday night, or hear a live band perform. On nights without a band or DJ, you can still crank up the juke box.

Engage in hands-on learning about science, nature and sustainable living at the Urban Ecology Center. The center has two outdoor "laboratories," located in two urban parks, which feature 15 acres of woodland, a lagoon and riparian habitat on the east bank of the Milwaukee River. The parks also house a habitat-themed playground, as well as seasonal swimming, boating and skating.
