    Doors Open Milwaukee is a two-day public celebration of Milwaukee’s art, architecture, culture and history. Tour more than 160 sites throughout Milwaukee — including 15 in the Near West Side. This event takes guests behind the scenes of the neighborhood’s most admired buildings, including the Tripoli Shrine Center and The Rave. Visit each Doors Open site with the September Guide to collect stickers; turn your card in at the Mobile Design Box to redeem prizes. Doors Open MKE is also looking for energetic volunteers for this event. Information and registration is online.  
  • Near West Side Farmers Market – Sept. 19 and 26
    The Near West Side Farmers Market is located at 35th Street and Juneau Avenue, conveniently located on Harley-Davidson’s campus. Every week, local farmers selling flowers and seasonal vegetables are joined by a variety of artisans, makers and bakers. New vendors and entertainment are available each week.    

The September Guide to the Near West Side serves as a passport to each event and Doors Open site.
