Go Where You’ve Never Been! Every year, Midsummer Festival of the Arts offers a new and unexpected world of art for you to discover. Here at the John Michael Kohler Arts Center, we couldn’t be more excited about presenting our 43rd Festival. Hundreds of artists applied for the Festival jury process; the 135 chosen artists are some of the Midwest’s finest. In booths set up along the tree-lined streets, festivalgoers can choose from an astounding variety of paintings, photographs, jewelry, sculpture, ceramics, art glass, fiber art, and much more. Treasures abound for pocketbooks large and small. Admission is free, as are the six concerts and the fascinating exhibitions inside the Arts Center, where even the washrooms are works of art. For a nominal fee, there are hands-on art workshops for all ages. Of course, there are plenty of food vendors to satisfy cravings for a sweet treat or a delicious meal. Come join us for this art-filled weekend in Sheboygan, Wis. It is sure to take you places you have never been!
