MIAD Holiday Sale

This annual December event brings together handmade and original artwork created by MIAD students, instructors, alumni, and staff—all priced affordably. You'll discover a diverse range of pieces including paintings, sculptures, photography, jewelry, and cards while getting to chat with the artists themselves. It's a wonderful way to find one-of-a-kind gifts while directly supporting creative talent in Milwaukee. The sale runs over three days with different admission options. Thursday evening features a VIP preview (4:30–6 p.m.) and general public hours (6–8 p.m.) for a $10 entry fee. Friday and Saturday offer free admission, giving families flexible ways to visit. While you're there, take advantage of tours through MIAD's galleries to see current exhibitions. The best part? Your purchase directly benefits the artists—70 percent of sales go to creators, and the remaining 30 percent supports student scholarships.
