Driving Greater Milwaukee's Arts, Culture, & Creative Industries Toward A More Vibrant & Sustainable Future

Imagine MKE (Wisconsin Avenue, Milwaukee) -- Amplifying Milwaukee's Creative Economy

Why We
Exist

Wisconsin ranks 49th in the nation in per-capita public arts funding. 

Milwaukee is the only city of its size without a publicly-funded office working on behalf of the arts and culture sector.

28% of surveyed Milwaukee-based creatives are strongly considering relocating to another city due to a lack of creative opportunities and support here.

The City of Milwaukee and Milwaukee County collectively reinvest just 0.3% of the economic impact directly generated by arts and culture.
