Students from UWM School of Architecture and Urban Studies conduct research for master’s thesis and PhD dissertations using the Cherry Street Community Garden as a focal point for connecting with neighborhood residents.
BloomMKE provides the following means of support:
- Access to weekly garden club meetings
- Introductions to gardeners’ and area residents
- Office space to conduct oral interviews
- Collaboration on Food Justice Workshops
Partnering with the Milwaukee Institute of Art & Design (MIAD) has provided art students opportunities to create public works of art to add to their professional portfolios while endowing our gardens with original and inspired pieces.
