How to Save Money in Milwaukee

• Enjoy a fine performance at the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee Peck School of the Performing Arts. A variety of events showcasing the best work of the Peck students are held throughout the summer; most of these are free to the public or request a donation in support of the arts. Events include stage performances, film festivals and art gallery showings.
• Tour City Hall, which was once the largest habitable building in the United States. Both guided and self-guided tours allow visitors to gaze at the ornate architecture and 380-foot-tall atrium while learning about the building’s history.
• Dance to the music at a River Rhythms concert in Pere Marquette Park. From June through August, local musical groups play a wide variety of styles on Wednesday evenings—rain or shine.
