SUMMARY:Milwaukee Press Club Newsmaker Luncheon
DESCRIPTION:Steven DeVougas\, former chairman and current member of Milwaukee’s Fire and Police Commission\, will be the featured guest at a virtual event set for noon on Thursday\, September 17. This Newsmaker Lunch Hour is presented by a partnership between the Milwaukee Press Club and WisPolitics.com. \nDeVougas\, founder of DeVougas Law Group in Milwaukee\, has faced broad criticism in recent months for his own actions and for the commission’s controversial dealings with former Milwaukee Police Chief Alfonso Morales. \nMorales retired last month and is pursuing legal action after the FPC voted unanimously to demote him to the rank of captain\, with some commissioners contending he had failed to work with the FPC and had lied to them and the public. \nDeVougas currently is the subject of an investigation by the City of Milwaukee Ethics Board\,  launched after the Milwaukee Police Association filed a complaint against him. The complaint raised concerns about his being present at a 2019 police interview of a real estate developer accused of sexual assault because DeVougas then was chairman of the FPC\, which has oversight for the Police Department. \nA separate independent investigation conducted by a retired assistant U.S. Attorney and a former FBI agent found that DeVougas lied about his representation of the real estate developer and likely violated city ethics rules. \nDeVougas has denied any wrongdoing and has vowed to remain in his position on the FPC despite calls for him to step down. \nHe will field questions from a panel of journalists from noon to 1 p.m.\, moderated by Milwaukee Press Club President Gene Mueller\, host of Wisconsin’s Morning News at News Radio 620 WTMJ. \nThe media panel:\nAshley Luthern – Reporter\, Milwaukee Journal Sentinel\nRyan Jenkins – Reporter\, TMJ4 – WTMJ TV\nDerrick Rose – Anchor/Investigative Reporter\, WISN TV \nYou must register in advance to view this event. Those who register will receive a link on the morning of the event to view it live. \nREGISTER HERE \n

SUMMARY:Wild Space Creates Parking Lot Dance #2: On the River
DESCRIPTION:Wild Space Dance Company presents Parking Lot Dance #2: On the River\, September 16-17 at 7 p.m. and 9 p.m. in the parking lot at 1301 N. Water Street. Reserved tickets are $22 for Premium Lot Level chair seating and $15 for Standing Room Upper Level locations. The second in the company’s performance series\, Parking Lot Dance #2: On the River brings audiences to watch dance in one of the city’s most unusual downtown parking lots on the bank of the Milwaukee River. Advanced ticket reservations are required: www.wildspacedance.org. Tickets will be on sale beginning September 4th. \nAs night falls along the Milwaukee River\, dancers appear and disappear\, moving in and out of headlights\, navigating and accompanied by seagulls\, geese\, and cars traveling over bridges that frame the lot. City traffic and party boats pass continually\, surrounding dancers and audience. Musical interludes of saxophone and pauses to feed the seagulls round out the evening. \nThe Edison Lot\, tucked down from the city\, offers an intimate out-of-the car viewing experience from the safety of a chair reserved for you. \n“The sold-out success of this summer’s Drive-in Dance revealed the need for live arts experience and the thrill of dancing again with a live audience. The Parking Lot Dance Series allows us to offer a full season of live outdoor performance created in parking lots throughout the city\,” said Artistic Director\, Debra Loewen. \nPerformers: Tori Isaac\, Mauriah Kraker\, Molly Keifer\, Danielle Lohuis\, Jenni Reinke\, Lindsey Ruenger and Joe Willard Riggenbach.
