What’s New in Milwaukee - June 2025

3 New Things Coming to Milwaukee This June

A guide to birdscaping, a new release from Collections of Colonies of Bees and a new brick and mortar from a renown local brand.

1. Birdscaping for Wisconsin 

Want to bring birds to your garden? These 50 different native plants will do the trick. Author Mariette Nowak explains how to cultivate them and what makes them so attractive for our state’s feathered friends. The book is out this month.

2. Celebrities

Longtime Milwaukee post-rock band Collections of Colonies of Bees is always experimenting. Their new album, with the uncharacteristically danceable single “A Tricky Sin,” is no exception. It’s out June 3. 

3. Milwaukee Boot Co. 

This artisan leather goods maker is slated to move into the former MIAD Gallery at The Ave space (301 W. Wisconsin Ave.) this summer. The new store will feature the company’s handcrafted boots, bags, belts and more.
