Warm up this winter with art, culture, and history during  Visit Milwaukee’s annual Museum Days. For a limited time, enjoy 20% off admission to the Charles Allis Art Museum and experience one of the city’s most treasured cultural landmarks.

Step inside this historic mansion and explore a remarkable collection of Asian porcelains, European sculpture, fine paintings, and rare books from Charles Allis’ personal library—alongside dynamic contemporary exhibitions.

Now on view:

• Arts@1801 – The Arts@1801 Student Showcase Exhibition celebrates the creativity, growth, and artistic voices of Milwaukee-area high school students from Rufus King International High School, presented at the Charles Allis Art Museum.
   
• Bated Breath: Neglected Possessions – This exhibition invites visitors into a world where forgotten objects and discarded materials become catalysts for imagination.
