WiFCC invites you to join us at the Black Arts Festival MKE 2024 at the Summerfest Grounds in Milwaukee! We are happy to offer individuals and families impacted by adoption or out-of-home care the opportunity to attend this festival together. Limit of 5 tickets per household. Kids ages 7 and under do not require a ticket. This event is for Wisconsin's adoptive, foster, guardianship, relative caregiver, and reunified families and individuals!
Black Arts Fest MKE is excited to return to the Summerfest grounds on Saturday, August 3, 2024 from 12 noon - 10pm. This annual festival celebrates the deep roots of African Heritage and the creativity of Black Cultural Arts. Black Arts Fest MKE is packed with fun-filled festivities for all ages and backgrounds including kids, youth, teens, adults and seniors! Come enjoy this multi-generational experience of black culture & community through live performances in music, art, heritage, poetry, dance, shopping, food, fun, fashion and more. You will check in with a WiFCC specialist prior to entering the festival to receive your tickets from 12pm-1pm. You are welcome to stay until the festival ends until 10pm. WiFCC will establish a location to meet-up in the festival for any families wishing to connect with others or socialize as well. This location and time will be emailed to you a week or so before the festival.

This event would be a great opportunity to invite your child's birth/first family or previous foster family. We understand this may not work for all families, but encourage you to consider it. We hope to create an opportunity for children to have all their loved ones in one location whenever possible and create positive memories together. Please have each household register separately.
