To, our artists, our volunteers our whole TRUE Skool Team & everyone who stepped into the Arts & Culture Zone with us—THANK YOU! We are honored and excited to announce the top three winners for this year‘s Arts + Culture Zone Mural Contest : (drum roll)

For too long, the pathways into architecture and urban planning has felt closed off, distant, or disconnected from the lived experiences of our Hip Hop Culture or our communities.

After much deliberation and review, the artists have been selected for our 2026 Juneteenth Arts & Culture Zone Mural Contest: Justin Heard , Ahmari Benton, LaQuailla Bryant, Leah Cashaw, Zaneta Cainion , Mario Hamilton 🫟 We are incredibly grateful for the overwhelming response from Milwaukee’s Artists!! We will have to go even BIGGER in the future! Wow! The artistic talent and vision shared through this year’s applications were inspiring & powerful and we are working on ways

his SUMMER PARK JAM WEEKEND in August 14th & 15th, 2026 DJ Rob Swift and Mista Sinista, performing collectively under their official moniker "Da Odd Couple", are locked to headline our 2026 Summer Park Jam Weekend!! Whoa!

Recently we spent the whole day at the MATC Milwaukee Tech Lab getting busy with Autodesk Revit —real-world software the pros use. We spent time designing floor plans and structures, bringing our own imaginations to life with full storylines for every building idea!

We just wrapped up our highly anticipated Hard Hat Construction Tour of the new Milwaukee Public Museum (The Nature & Culture Museum of Wisconsin), and it was absolutely dope!
