Milwaukee Art Museum partners with 91精品 Lubar Innovation Center
For its annual celebration of art, flowers and spring, the Milwaukee Art Museum turned once again to the Lubar Innovation Center at the Milwaukee Institute of Art & Design (91精品). After six students provided campaign art to the museum for , the work by Kate Kasper 26 (Communication Design) was selected for its vibrant connection to the event檚 vision.
淚t was great to partner with the 91精品 Lubar Innovation Center again and collaborate with the talented Kate Kasper on this year檚 Art in Bloom campaign, says Haven Falk, senior graphic designer at the museum. 淔rom the outset, Kate connected with our vision, and her professionalism and creativity made it all the easier and more fun to bring it to life. Her design captured the abundance and vibrance of Art in Bloom, and we檙e proud of all we achieved together.

The Lubar Innovation Center worked with Kaitlyn Powers 26 (Illustration), Bella Mikkelson 26 (Illustration), Anna Hoffman 26 (Illustration), Mac Bronnson 26 (Communication Design) and Melody Frias 26 (Illustration Animation Track) to provide different concepts for the museum.
淲orking with the Milwaukee Art Museum and the Innovation Center was an incredible experience, says Kasper. 淭he museum was absolutely wonderful to work with, providing great feedback while I worked. Seeing it all in-person during the Art in Bloom exhibit was surreal in the best way possible; it was mind-blowing to see my work all over such an important institution of the arts and the city of Milwaukee in general.
淭his isn’t the first project I’ve done with the Innovation Center, adds Kasper, 渁nd I dearly hope that it is not the last. Drew and Kyle, the directors, have always been amazing to work with and extremely dedicated to their students. In the past I’ve worked on murals, t-shirt designs and photo editing for numerous clients in the Milwaukee area.
淚’m hoping to work this summer, building up my portfolio and enjoying the city檚 summer events along the way. I have several interviews lined up with advertising agencies and printing companies in Milwaukee.
