China Lights
Sculptural lanterns as large as 3-stories high light up the night during China Lights, at Boerner Botanical Gardens from September to October. The partnership between Milwaukee County Parks and Tianyu Arts & Culture has brought in hundreds of thousands of dollars in ticket sales, which has helped fund improvements at the botanical gardens.

Re:Craft & Relic
Since 2015, Re:Craft & Relic, Southeastern Wisconsin's largest marketplace event of makers, vintage curators, and pop-up boutiques has produced three events each year at the 55,000-square-foot Milwaukee County Sports Complex. Events attract 160 – 180 vendors and 5,000 – 7,000 shoppers. While the indoor infrastructure makes doing business easier for vendors, free parking in the 5-acre lot is a real bonus for shoppers!
