Save the Wisconsin Center Literary Displays!

The Issue

Stop The Demolition
by Dr. Kim Blaeser

The literary installations that grace the halls of the Wisconsin Center in Milwaukee are slated to be permanently removed. The demolition of this public art at the convention center will begin Monday, April 10th, if we don’t stop it!

Wisconsin Center District CEO Marty Brooks made this decision single-handedly and never presented it to the Board, which oversees the district. Wisconsin Center District is a tax-supported government body. As such, it owes its citizens due process.

We demand a deliberate process that involves the community and respects those whose work has been a part of the Wisconsin Center for decades.

This is Wisconsin’s literary history. It should not be erased. Stop the removal immediately!
