Discover underwater secrets, explore the depths of space, time travel to the world of dinosaurs, climb the heights of Everest and be blown away by the Earth's weather, all from the comfort of your seat.

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.

Let your wild side run free at the Milwaukee County Zoo! This zoo is recognized as one of the country's finest animal attractions. With over 2,000 animals and 330 species, it is not difficult to see why. See penguins and polar bears, bonobos and gorillas, cheetahs and lions, almost every type of animal that you have read about! Learn about these animals, their natural habitats and what you can do to support their continued existence.

Be sure to watch a performance by the Milwaukee Repertory Theater & Professional Theater Company, an eleven member Resident Acting Company dedicated to presenting new playwrights and reviving classics. The Rep's current complex is a cleverly converted power generation plant that can seat well over a thousand people within its three theaters, and hosts an 11-play entertainment season annually.
