Regency Milwaukee, and the SpringHill Suites
Milwaukee Downtown Marriott.
The contributions that African-Americans have made
to business, culture, and social justice in Milwaukee can-
not be understated, and today the fight to create a better,
more equitable Milwaukee continues. With cultural insti-
tutions to visit, Black-owned businesses to support and
events to connect with the community, conference dele-
gates will find plenty to engage in when a day's meetings
are complete.
Opening to the public later this year, America's Black
Holocaust Museum has a robust virtual presence and a
variety of online galleries and events. Exhibits focus on
both the history of the Black Holocaust in America and
drawing redemptive lessons from the tragedies of the
past.
GREEN BAY
There's no place quite like Green Bay. Its contagious
spirit, personality and hospitality, make Green Bay one of
the Midwest's top convention destinations. Big city ameni-
ties combined with small-town charm makes the Green
Bay area a great fit for large conventions and small meet-
ings alike. From functional to extraordinary, the destina-
tion offers meeting spaces that fit all group types at afford-
able prices. In addition, the destination you choose should
offer great options for work and play.
Enjoy the outdoors with a round of golf or take to the
water for a charter fishing excursion. Explore the area's
rich heritage at local museums and galleries, try your luck
at the casino or enjoy a tasteful dinner with friends.
If this sampling of Midwestern destinations makes you
hungry to learn more, the state tourism offices listed with
this article have lots of information to help get your meet-
ing, incentive trip or reunion plans started.
