Momentum is a celebration of Near West Side artists and their influence on Milwaukee’s broader arts scene.

Curated by activist artists Brad Bernard and Erik Eide—who collectively bring over 50 years of experience in using art as a medium for placemaking—Momentum showcases the cultural contributions of our community.

Hosted at the Uplifting Mansion, a new BIPOC cultural hub in the neighborhood, the event promises to highlight the rich artistic influence of the Near West Side on Milwaukee’s creative landscape.
