locales, so look to us to be your travel adventure partner.  Many of the UW-Waukesha Continuing Education trips are led by the popular and entertaining Vic Passante; Travelin' Vic will inspire you with his fantastic knowledge and contagious enthusiasm for travel excursions. 

Local Adventures: The Milwaukee Sampler

Milwaukee's Museums, See What's New (April 14, 2010, $83).  Three museums that have received national attention!  Have you see them? First, let's tour the Eisner Museum, one of the nation's only educational centers that focuses on advertising and design.  Then head to the Harley-Davidson museum, have lunch and move on to Discovery World.

Milwaukee's Industry, Just a Taste (May 12, 2010, $62). Visit the places that have helped put Cream City on the culinary map.  Penzey's Spices spices up the morning, then it's on to Palermo Pizza where we'll have a tour and lunch.  Finally, it's El Rey Foods for a demonstration and tasting of their tortillas and tamales.  Ole!

dancers by Degas, Lautrec and others. View the itinerary here.


Other Exciting Travel Options:
Edinburgh, Scotland, continues to lure us in.  This time, it's 30 days in the "Fringe" city with an arts-management internship opportunity in conjunction with the Milwaukee Art Museum.
