An adventurer named Solomon Juneau founded Milwaukee, Wisconsin in 1818. By the mid-19th century, the original settlement had joined up with several other small outposts to officially incorporate as the City of Milwaukee. For many decades, the city was home to breweries and industrial shops. Today, that proud brewing tradition continuous, but the area now also offers a diverse industrial and cultural life. Here in Milwaukee, you can explore seemingly limitless numbers of museums, art institutes, and recreational centers. The Milwaukee Public Museum and Milwaukee Art Museum, for instance, both support thousands of exhibits on natural history and anthropologic artifacts. If you are looking for a day trip to entertain the kids, head down to Discovery World, a museum full of fun interactive events. Motorcycle aficionados often breeze into town to visit the Harley-Davidson Museum. Milwaukee sponsors many festivals, including Summerfest, which takes place on the Henry Maier Festival Grounds, and the Wisconsin State Fair. These two events attract visitors from all around the Midwest to listen to great music, stuff themselves with food from America's Dairyland, and people-watch for days.
