Milwaukee Art Museum | December 2022
It’s been quite a long time since my last visit to the Milwaukee Art Museum (MAM) and even longer since the last time I photographed this incredible space (June of 2017, I’m actually shocked by this!). Last Monday, I took a bit of an impromptu trip up to the museum for both the architecture and […]
