Winter is here but we are already looking forward to next summer when Cathedral Square will be bursting with color in its new surroundings. The inconvenience of the construction will be in the rearview mirror and the new pavers, trees, bike racks, and waste baskets, all part of the Frame the Square project, will make their welcome appearance.

To make the square even more attractive, an expanded Color the Square program will bring the park alive with color by placing two flower baskets brimming with flowers on all the light poles inside and outside the square. We thank previous sponsors for supporting the flower basket program. However, we will need more sponsors and more donors to make the 2022 season a complete success.

That’s where you come in! Consider a sponsorship at one of five different levels from $100 to $1800 to bring vibrant living color to the Square! Make a commitment before the end of February to secure a spot as one of this year’s supporters!

We don’t know when Jazz in the Park or Bastille Days will return, but we do know that thousands of people will play on the playset, visit the farmers market, join in aerobics, eat their lunches, play games, and otherwise enjoy Milwaukee’s oldest park.
