You’ll find it easy here – all summer in Milwaukee.

With restaurants and bars opening their patios, Lake Michigan glimmering in the sun and live music playing from downtown streets or county parks, Milwaukee County welcomes you to enjoy your time with us. I especially welcome the 133rd Northwestern Mutual Annual Meeting of its financial representatives.

Summerfest remains the world’s largest music festival with over 800 performances and a lineup that includes performers for any music-lover. Popular ethnic festivals abound. And if you’re here for the 4th of July, every city celebrates with parades, festivities and fireworks, including one of the best fireworks shows in the country on Milwaukee’s lakefront. Milwaukee County’s beautiful beaches provide a day in the sun or an evening of music. The Milwaukee River offers boat rides and the beautiful RiverWalk leads to restaurants, theaters and great city views No matter what you choose to do in Milwaukee County, I hope you enjoy your time with us. Sincerely,

Chris Abele, Milwaukee County Executive

The summer sun shines brightly on Milwaukee, and, in this city, we get out and celebrate when the weather is warm.

From our lakefront festivals to neighborhood gatherings, the people of Milwaukee have plenty of options to enjoy the season. And visitors are always welcomed!

Milwaukee’s history is filled with stories of people joining in social events. Various groups of Native people gathered in Milwaukee long before Europeans set foot here. Successive waves of immigrants brought their own celebrations, and nowadays, Milwaukee’s ethnic festivals continue the tradition.

The city’s natural assets provide some of the best locations for summer celebrations. Our Lake Michigan shoreline, our rivers and our renowned park system are all venues for community events. Our investments in festival grounds, RiverWalks, and park amenities add even more life to warm weather events. When you’re in Milwaukee, be sure to join the locals at one of our great summer celebrations! Sincerely, Tom Barrett, Mayor

Key COVER FEATURE Tutti Italiani – What’s Your Italian?

Festa Italiana launches new features for 2013

FESTA ITALIANA, the largest Italian event of its kind in America, celebrates its 36th anniversary with entertainment, food, special Italian events and fireworks every night at Henry Maier Festival Park (Summerfest grounds) from Friday, July 19, through Sunday, July 21. This year the oldest of Milwaukee’s ethnic festivals brings back Festa favorites from past celebrations and adds new features, such as the Festa MKE mobile app, which are sure to please.

Festa Uncorked Festa Uncorked is a new wine tasting experience located on the south end of the grounds. After purchasing a Passport, winelovers can sample more than 36 varieties of wines from Italy and California.

The Festa Uncorked Passport is $30 in advance at www.festaitaliana.com and includes a general admission ticket or can be purchased during Festa (after admission) for $25 at the Festa Uncorked Tent. Festa Uncorked also includes seminars and a Wine Auction, featuring wines in a range of price points and other wine-related items.

New entertainment While Festa’s five stages present headliners Colt Ford, Matt Nathanson and Plain White T’s, a variety of Italian, opera, jazz and swing performers also thrill audiences. Options range from the Florentine Opera Company to Ricci Martin (son of Dean Martin), Micheal Castaldo and Moreno Fruzzetti (The Ambassador of Italian Music to America).

Entertainment also includes the all-female Italian harmony group Tre Bella, Louis Prima Jr. Band, The Bronx Wanderers, Tony Spavone and Filippo Voltaggio. Fans will gather for popular local bands like Bella Cain, Chasin’ Mason and 76 Juliet. Festa’s jazz stage has an exciting lineup and the popular Italian Idol Karaoke contest is back for its 8th year.

Live Italian. Eat Italian. Play Italian. Be Italian. Calling all foodies Chefs from some of Milwaukee’s best restaurants will demonstrate their creativity and skill at the Cucina Showcase. Returning celebrity chefs Rossella Rago and Maria Liberati bring new insights and recipes for 2013. The popular cannoli eating contest comes on Saturday and kids’ pizza-making contest is set for Sunday in the Cucina.

The tastes of Festa make this a “favorite fest” for many. Visitors know to come hungry and browse the nearly 40 food vendors. Many of Milwaukee’s leading Italian restaurants welcome guests to sample their fare.

New Friday Happy Hour On Friday only from 2-6 p.m., attendees can enjoy half off on selected food and beverage items during Festa’s new Happy Hour. And throughout Festa’s three-day run, enjoy Bar Italia, the new sports bar located on the north end of the grounds. Fun for families Kids of all ages enjoy the Pinocchio Parade at 5:30 p.m. on Saturday and Sunday and special daily entertainment at the Children’s Stage. Other don’t miss attractions include:

• Abbondanza in the Sky, the spectacular fireworks show presented every night by Milwaukee’s Bartolotta Fireworks.

• Italian drummers from Italy sponsored by Palermo’s Pizza

• Bocce Ball daily, with a tournament on Sunday.

• A new Festa Italiana World Cup Soccer Tournament on Saturday.

• Gondola rides turn the Summerfest lagoon into a Venetian scene and provide another Italian experience (without the jet lag).

The annual Wheels and Heels Rush on Festa 5K run and walk takes place Friday, July 19, in conjunction with the Southeastern Wisconsin Chapter of the National Spinal Cord Injury Association.

Reverend Donald J. Hying, Auxiliary Bishop with the Archdiocese of Milwaukee, celebrates Sunday

Mass and leads the procession following on Sunday, July 21, at the Marcus Amphitheater.

First Midwest showing of 30 Americans here through Sept. 8 THE MILWAUKEE ART Museumâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s 2013 special summer exhibition is a dynamic exploration of contemporary American art by African American artists, being seen for the first time in the Midwest.

Consisting of paintings, sculptures, installations, photographs and video completed since 1970, 30 Americans raises questions about what it means to be a contemporary artist and an African American today. Addressing issues of race, gender, politics and history, the works offer powerful interpretations of cultural identity and artistic legacy. The exhibition is drawn from the acclaimed holdings of the Rubell Family Foundation in Miami, Florida. New Yorkers Don and Mera Rubell began acquiring contemporary art in the late 1960s. Through their friendships with living artists, particularly young artists, the Rubells collected backwards and forwards, creating networks of intergenerational influence.

At the museum through Sept. 8, the exhibition has been seen only at the Chrysler Museum in Norfolk, Va., and the Corcoran Gallery in Washington D.C.

There are three complementary exhibitions presented in conjunction with the 30 Americans exhibition and running concurrently with the feature exhibition.

The museum presents 30 works by 30 Wisconsin-based African American artists in Schroeder Galleria with an exhibition titled Wisconsin 30. In addition, works from the Museumâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Collection by African American artists are on display in the Contemporary Galleries. The five-channel video installation Question Bridge: Black Males also is available for viewing.

30 Americans is presented at the Milwaukee Art Museum by Helen Bader Foundation, Northwestern Mutual and SC Johnson. 35

Giving back supports positive neighborhood development

western Mutual Life Insurance Company, Milwaukee, WI (NM) and its subsidiaries. nt Services, LLC, broker-dealer, registered investment adviser, subsidiary of NM, ered through Northwestern Mutual Wealth Management Company®, Milwaukee, WI, A is a trademark of the National Collegiate Athletic Association. 19-1407 (0612)

HOME TO NORTHWESTERN MUTUAL and nearly 600,000 residents, Milwaukee is known for a number of its cultural preferences, for everything from cheese to its professional and amateur sports teams.

One tradition Milwaukee may not be as well known for is its commitment to community. With more than one quarter of residents giving time to volunteer to support local nonprofits, Milwaukee is ranked seventh among the 51 largest U.S. metropolitan areas for volunteerism, making it a great place to work and live.

Embodying this commitment, Northwestern Mutual encourages its 5,000 Milwaukee-based employees to participate in activities. In 2012, they contributed more than 25,000 volunteer hours to mentoring, drives and support programs.

“We believe in the power of the city that we’ve called home for more than 100 years,” said John Schlifske, chairman, president and chief executive 36

officer of Northwestern Mutual, hosting its 133rd Annual Meeting of Network Representatives here this month. “Whether supporting neighborhood development or providing access to higher education, every contribution helps bolster the progress of our community to achieve greatness and success for current and future generations.”

Outward impact from within

Northwestern Mutual’s community support and volunteerism is grounded in its Southeastern Wisconsin headquarters, which includes the downtown Milwaukee and Franklin campuses. The spirit of employees’ passion to give back to the community is inherent in its company values.

African-American Resource Group

Earlier this year, members of the company’s African-American Employee Resource Group hosted a book drive during Northwestern Mutual’s Martin Luther King Jr. Day of Service. The group collected more than 4,000 books and donated them to the Next Door Foundation, which

“When people have a personal connection to a cause, they make an impact” serves the Metcalfe Park neighborhood on the north side of Milwaukee.

The Next Door Foundation provides educational services to more than 1,200 low-income children from birth to five years old. The books will help advance the center’s educational programs for children and families.

The donation culminated in a daylong event that celebrated National Black History Month with a children’s rap song performance on AfricanAmerican inventors and a display of projects. Volunteers delivered books and read with children. To help make a sustainable impact, Northwestern Mutual also gives back to the community through efforts that help launch and maintain programs.

Building Neighborhood Capacity

Recently, the company announced its commitment of more than $725,000 in grants to three Milwaukee neighborhoods, reaching people who call the Amani, Metcalfe Park and Muskego Way neighborhoods home. The program will support welcoming, safe and healthy neighborhoods through nonprofit partners and community leadership.

One new project resulting from this initiative is a program with Hunger Task Force, which has run food banks across Milwaukee for the past 40 years. The Auer Oasis project will bring daily meal services into the Amani neighborhood at Auer Elementary School during the summer months. Because of limited access to food in the neighborhood, the grant is covering all costs to provide lunch and dinner for many families in the neighborhood.

Providing Higher Education Grants

Education is key to a bright, successful future and Northwestern Mutual is committed to help with grants totaling $336,000 for scholarship opportunities that increase access to higher education for low-income students.

Ten institutions throughout the state receiving the grants will utilize the funds to help support scholarship opportunities and specialized programs such as information technologies.

All photos were taken at the special event for the Next Door Foundation, with Northwestern Mutual volunteers collecting, delivering and reading books to children.

Long-term commitment

Developing and driving programs that provide resources to neighborhoods allows Milwaukee to continue building strong, dynamic neighborhoods capable of accomplishing anything.

“When people have a personal connection to a cause, they make an impact,” said Schlifske. “Community engagement and support has, and will continue to be, a longstanding tradition for Northwestern Mutual.”

Lynden Sculpture Garden offers art amid nature THE LYNDEN SCULPTURE GARDEN, 2145 W. Brown Deer Rd, offers a family-friendly art experience just north of downtown in River Hills.

Samuel Buri, Des Vaches: Mo, Ni, Que

Formerly the Bradley Sculpture Garden, the 40-acre grounds were previously open to the public on very limited occasions. The sculpture garden offers a unique experience of art in nature through a collection of more than 50 monumental sculptures sited across park, lake and woodland.

Through Oct. 2, the sculpture garden is open to art and nature lovers of all ages from 10 a.m.-5 p.m. Monday, Tuesday, and Friday; 10 a.m.-7:30 p.m. Wednesday and noon-5 p.m. Saturday and Sunday and closed Thursday. A picnic area and bike racks help make this a destination for fun family outings as well as an eye-opening artistic experience. Special events are planned throughout the year and there are special exhibits on view in the onsite galleries and on the grounds.

Day memberships are $9 for adults and $7 for students, seniors, active military and children aged 6-17. Annual memberships also are available. Children under 6 are admitted free with an adult. Docent-led tours of the sculpture collection are Sundays at 2:30 p.m. Admission that includes the tour is $12 for adults and $8 reduced. Reservations for Sunday tours are online or 414-446-8481.

Aldo Calo, Tensione

The sculpture garden is owned and operated by the Bradley Family Foundation. The Lynden house and grounds were purchased in 1927 by industrialist Harry Bradley of the Allen-Bradley Company and his wife, Peg Bradley. The Bradleys retained the Chicago landscape architects William Langford and Theodore Moreau to transform the flat farmland, with its small farmhouse and barn, into an English country garden.

Further plans to construct a botanical garden on the site were derailed by the outbreak of World War II. From 1962-1978, Peg Bradley—already an experienced art collector—began collecting the contemporary monumental sculptures that secured Lynden’s international reputation. The collection includes sculptures by Alexander Archipenko, Henry Moore, Barbara Hepworth, Clement Meadmore, Marta Pan, Tony Smith, Mark di Suvero and many others.

Children explore the edge of a pond at Lynden.

Public spaces include a conference room, large classroom/studio, gallery and glassed-in function space overlooking the large patio. The renovated residence is available as a conference and retreat center, and for event rentals. For info call 414-446-8794 or visit lyndensculpturegarden.org.

ART RACE IDENTITY

30 Americans is a dynamic exploration of contemporary American art. Paintings, sculptures, photographs, and more by many of the most important African American artists of the last three decades powerfully examine cultural identity and artistic legacy. NOW THROUGH SEPT 8, 2013 Sponsored by:

Dive into excitement at Maritime Museum WISCONSIN MARITIME Museum in Manitowoc, about 90 minutes north of Milwaukee, is the largest maritime museum on the Great Lakes.

An affiliate of the Smithsonian Institution, the museum introduces visitors to all facets of Great Lakes maritime life and provides insight into the “silent service” through tours of the fully restored World War II submarine, the U.S.S. Cobia.

The ongoing exhibit Bells & Whistles, invites visitors to learn the “Language of the Lakes.” The exhibit explores various methods used by mariners to communicate with other sailors, vessels and people along the shores.

Ten Chimneys offers visitors personal view of theater’s ‘Golden Age’

TEN CHIMNEYS in Genesee Depot, 30 minutes southwest of Milwaukee, was the summer home of theater legends Alfred Lunt and Lynn Fontanne. “Anyone who was anyone” in theatre, arts and literature visited from the roaring 1920s through the 1940s.

Recognized as a National Historic Landmark, the estate remains an important place for artistic creation, discussion and inspiration. Ten Chimneys is overflowing with memorabilia: notes from Laurence Olivier, snapshots of the Lunts with the Queen Mother, mementos from Helen Hayes and Noël Coward, inscribed first edition books from Edna Ferber and Alexander Woollcott, and remembrances from dozens of others

More than just the Lunts’ home, Ten Chimneys was a home for the arts. Most of Ten Chimneys’ historic furnishings, hand-painted murals, personal décor, and diverse collections are intact and unchanged – original pieces hand-picked by the Lunts in the 1920s, ’30s, and ’40s. And the magic is undiminished. As guests are welcomed through the Lunts’ remarkable creation, they are surprised and then moved by countless details.

Visitors are led through the estate by highly-trained docents, Tuesday through Saturday through Dec. 1. Tours are available from 10 a.m. to 2:30 p.m. Reservations are highly recommended; phone 262-968-4110. For info, visit www.tenchimneys.org.

From Milwaukee, take I-94 west towards Madison to Hwy 83 south, Hwy. 83 to Genesee Depot. When Hwy. 83 curves left, turn right onto Depot Road and watch for the Ten Chimneys sign on your left.

Wisconsin native looks forward to Senior Tour

Nothing cheesy about Jerry Kelly’s game By JERRY SLASKE KEY Milwaukee golf editor

WISCONSIN NATIVE Jerry Kelly is experiencing a sort of rebirth on the PGA Tour this year, hoping to set a solid foundation for a move to the Senior Tour.

“My goal is to get back in the winner’s circle and use it as a bridge to the next level,” says Kelly, 47, a three-time winner on the big tour who has over $24 million in career earnings. “I’m in a better position now than ever before to do that.”

Leading the charge this year has been a great improvement in his ball striking. “Without a doubt I’ve been steadily making better contact and hitting more greens in regulation,” he says. “Also, my putting is more solid.”

Kelly downplays any physical problems as the reason for his frustration in recent years, saying “everything goes in cycles” and that playing with injuries is part of any sport. He ought to know, having played hockey at the University of Hartford and continuing to do so occasionally during the off season. While you can count on Kelly showing up at just about every tour event because “it’s a short season”, he had to miss his favorite stop this year – the Crowne Plaza Invitational at Colonial, May 2326. That was the week of his son’s 8th grade graduation and nothing gets in the way of participating in his son’s activities. (Kelly’s second favorite tourney is the RBC Heritage at Harbour Town, where he had his best finish so far this year – 5th place.) “When I’m not on tour, my son dictates my schedule,” he says. “It’s nonstop,” including golfing together at their home course, Maple Bluff Country Club in Madison, where his son at times outdistances him. Kelly prides himself on his family’s closeness. “I’m sort of a solitary guy on tour…a hermit,” he quips. 54

PGA pro Jerry Kelly seeks win as ‘bridge’ to Senior Tour “Instead, it’s all about family. My wife and son travel with me as often as possible,” which he says will continue on the senior circuit. In fact, his most memorable moment in golf was his second win at the 2002 Advil Western Open in Chicago when both of his families were there to help him hoist the trophy. “It’s one of those keepsake photos,” he says.

While Kelly doesn’t really chum around with any other tour pros during the season, he does have guys with whom he likes to be paired. “I know it sounds kind of cliché for Wisconsin guys, but I really enjoy ‘Strick’,” he says, referring to Steve Stricker, another highly successful Wisconsin native on Tour and one of its best putters. “We feed off one another; besides, it helps my putting when we play together.” Like Stricker, Kelly’s keeps his year-round residence in Wisconsin because he likes the seasons. “I’d go nuts if it were summer all year round,” he says. And it was the change of seasons that got him into golf. His first love may still be hockey, but he says he had to do something in the summer. (Kelly’s other Wisconsin loves include a lake perch dinner; Pleasant Ridge Reserve cheese from the Uplands Cheese Company in Dodgeville; Hook’s 15-year Cheddar from Hook’s Cheese Company in Mineral Point; and Spotted Cow beer from New Glarus Brewing Company in New Glarus.)

What gets Kelly’s juices flowing about golf is the competition. “It’s one against 143 every week,” he says. “If that doesn’t get your attention nothing will. I like the physicality and the hits of hockey and its team aspect, but golf appeals to a whole different side.”

During the phone interview for this story, Kelly was watching the NHL playoffs in his hotel room on the night before the HP Byron Nelson Championship in Dallas. With violent thunderstorms and tornadoes raging outside, he was yelling at the TV during the first game between his beloved Chicago Blackhawks and the Detroit Red Wings. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I have a friendly wager with Mike Weir,â&#x20AC;? he laughs. Canadian Weir is another huge hockey fan on the Tour.

(Kelly, who has the looks of a hockey player, also follows the NHLâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s San Jose Sharks because of his friendship with Madison native and University of Wisconsin graduate Adam Burish, the teamâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s right winger.)

Though Kelly sometimes feels like he still practices and plays hockey, he chalks up the aches and pains to age. The way heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s golfing this year, however, we might soon be talking about him as one of the oldest winners on the PGA Tour.

On other PGA Tour topics: Kelly thinks belly putters should be banned and blood testing done. And he thinks itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s essentially a dead issue bringing the Tour back to Wisconsin after the US Bank Championship in Milwaukee was axed from the schedule several years ago.

13 July home games on tap for Brewers

THE MILWAUKEE Brewers play 13 games at Miller Park this month, including series with the New York Mets and division rival Cincinnati Reds.

Rain or shine, every home game will be played, thanks to the retractable roof. One of the most fanfriendly stadiums in the Major Leagues, Miller Park is ranked by sports reporters and baseball fans as one of the best in baseball. The stadium is just west of downtown Milwaukee, with easy access to parking lots which can accommodate even the largest crowds.

After one of the worst starts in team history, the Brewers have been showing signs of improvement in the past month. Pitching is improving as the team moves into the warmer second half of the season.

Millioke makes a name for itself during debut NAMING A NEW DOWNTOWN restaurant Millioke, the Algonquin tribal name for Milwaukee, and using the tag line “Meat, Cheese, Beer” created quite a challenge. But Brent Brashier, director of food and beverage at the new Milwaukee Downtown Marriott, and Millioke executive chief Patrick Taylor have blended those Milwaukee staples in a way that should please all palates.

To meet the challenge, Taylor formed partnerships with the Wisconsin Milk Marketing Board to provide artisan cheeses, with the city’s leading sausage maker, with a Madison supplier of hand-crafted cured meats, and with many of the best craft brewers in the state.

beers are on tap, including 15 craft favorites from Milwaukee and other parts of the state, three from Ireland and two from Chicago.

Customers enter the restaurant directly from 323 E. Wisconsin Ave. This gives Millioke the “standalone” identity that will promote visits by residents and visitors as well as hotel guests. The décor blends sleek modern lighting and burnished hardwood tables and booths. Dividing walls with arches are composed of Milwaukee’s famous Cream City brick, recovered from historic businesses once located on Millioke’s site.

In addition, the restaurant offers starters it calls “to share or not” like bacon roasted shrimp, chargrilled chicken wings, Wisconsin beer cheese fondue and a slider trio that will satisfy vegetarians as well as meat lovers – grilled Portobello mushroom, classic burger and BBQ pork.

“We decided to take a rustic, unsophisticated approach, without going too far,” says Taylor, who came with Brashier from Austin, Tex., and served his first customers at Millioke on June 26, the same day as the new 205-room hotel opened.

While the restaurant is adjacent to a new Starbucks, the beverage of choice at Millioke is beer. Twenty 74

Millioke’s creative menu begins with charcuterie and cheese selections that can be mixed according to customer desires. Diners can pick five of 12 cheeses, including traditional, sheep, goat and mixed selections from around the state. They can choose six of nine hot and cold meats or they can blend cheese and meat and “build their own” combination plate, notes Taylor.

Veering somewhat away from “meat, cheese & beer” theme, the restaurant offers five distinctive salad options, but even there local cheeses are featured, along with fresh produce from area farms.

For main dishes, which the restaurant labels “something special,” the taste of Wisconsin is found in entrees like pan-seared walleye pike and Nueske’s bacon and cheese pappardelle, in addition to distinctive steak, chicken, seafood and vegetarian specialties.

“We’re taking a classic, old-school approach to cocktails,” says Brashier. All are handmade and, keeping with the locally sourced theme, often contain Wisconsin ingredients. The Blue Martini, for example, uses Bacon Infused Rehorst Vodka and olives stuffed with Carr Valley Billy Boy’s Blue Cheese. Roaring Dan’s Maple Rum, another Rehorst product from Milwaukee’s Great Lakes Distillery, is combined with ginger beer in a Lake Michigan Dark & Stormy.

Taylor, whose background includes four-star restaurants in Texas and the historic Adolphus Hotel in Dallas, also plans limited-seating events in the near future. Expect farm-to-table events, wine dinners and special holiday dining specials.

Millioke is open daily from 6:30-10:30 a.m. for breakfast, 11 a.m.-2:30 p.m. for lunch and 4-11 p.m. for dinner. Visit milliokerestaurant.com for additional information.
