Here's what previous year artists have had to say about us:

Communication was tops. Arrangement of booths great and breakfast was so...good. Easy load and unload. I thought I was dreaming! Sold a lot to very nice people. Milwaukee is wonderful!

Very well organized. The show is about art; it is not a carnival with many other distractions. The breakfast is fabulous. A great way to start the day. Thank you for a great experience.

No music to have to talk over, art is the sole thing, no kettle corn or junk. You took time to meet everyone and check pictures against what was for sale. I saw no buy/sell (art). Just very well done.


Morning Glory also includes many amenities for our patrons:
