While ice accumulates alongMilwaukee's lakefront, the Portof Milwaukee remains active incold weather months.

Cargo still moves by water.Vast amounts of deicing salttransit the Port, and suppliesare replenished in January andFebruary. Barge traffic continues year-round, carryingcargo into the Mississippi River system.

Oceangoing ships rely on the St. Lawrence Seaway,but for several months that passage closes. Thosevessels return in spring, carrying raw materials toMilwaukee and finished products to overseas mar-kets.Trucks come and go from the Port, and two raillines continue service too.

Huge ore carriers winter in Milwaukee's inner harbor.Extensive work is completed on those ships, readyingthem for another season on the Great Lakes.

Milwaukee's Port rarely slows down, even in the cold-est times of the year.

Sincerely,

Tom Barrett, Mayor

Dealers come to the show from all over theMidwest, and bring everything from furniture tocarpeting to jewelry to sterling flatware to finebooks. Dealers note that shows like this give peoplea chance to see and touch items, and talk withknowledgeable experts about the antiques.

Antique lovers also have the opportunity to attend agala preview party on Friday, Feb. 14, 6:30-9p.m.The party, which features drinks and appetizers,offers advance buying privileges. Cost for the pre-view party is $20.

In addition to an opportunity to view the antiques,the show’s traditions include homemade chili,chicken soup, baked goods and a raffle of a hand-made quilt.

One of the show's longstanding traditions is the raf-fle of a handmade quilt, sewn by volunteers. Eachyear the quilt is different, with the pattern beingselected by the quilting team.

"This show is unique because it relies totally on theefforts of volunteers," says Norma Herbers, thisyear’s chairperson. "The volunteers do all the workof organizing and setting up the show; sell tickets,

make and sell baked goods and chili, serve the foodand work for months on the handmade quilt. Theentire parish community gives generously of theirtime and talent to make this such an excellentshow.”

NEARLY SIX HUNDRED objects of folk and self-taught art, from duck decoys and quilts to the workof Grandma Moses, are on view through May 4 atthe Milwaukee Art Museum in Uncommon Folk:Traditions in American Art.

This whimsical installation of American paintings,drawings, sculpture, photography, textiles, furni-ture, and decorative arts draws from themuseum’s celebrated collection.

“The exhibition highlights the breadthand depth of the Milwaukee ArtMuseum’s world-class collection ofAmerican folk and self-taught art, frompaintings and photographs to walkingsticks and quilts,” said Director DanielKeegan. “This eclectic grouping ofAmerican folk and self-taught art is ademonstration of the museum’s long his-tory of collecting works by untrained cre-ators.”

Margaret Andera, exhibition curator,said, “Some of the works included werecreated within the cultural traditions of a particulargeographic area in the United States. Other tradi-tions are rooted in the function of an object, such asduck decoys and walking sticks, and are represent-ed by both historical and contemporary examples.”

Keegan noted, “Thanks to the museum’s rich hold-ings, Uncommon Folk: Traditions in American Art isable to overview the far-reaching variety in folk andself-taught art through a lively and visually com-pelling installation that has something for all ages,”said Keegan.

Uncommon Folk: Traditions in American Art is present-ed by the Caxambas Foundation and InternationalAutos Group.
