Children who love big machines can see equipment used to keep Milwaukee working and meet some of the people who operate it. The source identifies previous participants such as the Milwaukee Fire Department, Milwaukee Metropolitan Sewerage District, Milwaukee Department of Public Works, We Energies, Milwaukee Riverkeeper, Harley-Davidson Museum, Reflo, Greenprint Partners, and Milwaukee Public Library.
The free outdoor event includes Milwaukee Public Library storytimes at 10:15 and 11 a.m. Separate pinkROV dives are planned inside the Lake Michigan exhibit at 10 a.m., noon, and 2 p.m.; those aquarium presentations require paid museum admission.
Outdoor admission is free. Families entering Discovery World’s exhibits need a museum ticket, and online purchase is recommended to secure entry.
