Celebrate North America's largest outdoor French themed festival in downtown Milwaukee! Bastille Days is held annually in July and features impromptu street performances, roaming minstrels, a variety of musical entertainment and a signature 43-foot Eiffel Tower replica. Runners and walkers kick off the festival with the "Storming of the Bastille," a 5-K run and two mile walk.

The Grohmann Museum is a fairly new museum located at Milwaukee School of Engineering, whose artwork is dedicated to the evolution of human work. After you explore the three main levels, be sure to make a trip up to the roof. At the Rooftop Sculpture Garden you will see a dozen 9-foot tall, bronze sculptures depicting men toiling the fields and foundries.

Not in the mood for a musical? Milwaukee Chamber Theatre produces five first-rate, thought-provoking dramas of literary merit each season. Chamber Theatre operates out of the Broadway Theatre Center, which offers two entertainment spaces: Cabot Theatre, which seats 360 audience members, and Studio Theatre, which seats 99.
