Imagine a baby sleeping on a cloud. The wind gently rocks them and the sunlight brightens their face.Once only a dream of the Przekrój Foundation, this vision will come to life on FRIDAY, JUNE 21 at Milwaukee's Veterans Park for Make Music Day.
BABY YOU, a massive, 112-foot-long hot air balloon in the shape of a sleeping newborn, will be inflated and rise over Veterans Park, accompanied by a new a cappella choral work by composer Michael Schachter.
The event is free and open to the public. Join us for a magical and family-friendly evening!

???? ??? – a spectacular sculpture floating in the air – is a symbol for the potential in all of us that’s waiting to be awakened, unlimited, and endless as the sky. It is a reminder of the precious nature of life – joyful, full of wonder, and present in the here and now.
???? ??? aims to impart that each and every one of us is already enough, that we were born this way. Made of tan fabric, the balloon’s colors change with the sunlight, reflecting the many hues of human skin.
As the sun sets in Milwaukee, hundreds of singers will gather in Veterans Park, on the shore of Lake Michigan, to perform the new composition, while behind them the balloon is inflated, takes shape, and begins its tethered ascent. The combined aural and visual experience is meant to invoke the shared humanity of all people. Everyone was a baby once: adorable, vulnerable, and full of possibility.
Thank you to Create Wisconsin, and the Milwaukee Parks Department for their support.
