The Mayor’s Design Awards are presented in an ongoing effort to recognize design excellence throughout the City of Milwaukee. Recipients have added value to their neighborhoods by restoring, constructing or enhancing their properties in a way that respects the urban fabric and contributes to the character of their surroundings.
Thank you to everyone who nominated a project for this year's awards. Due to the ongoing COVID-19 public health crisis, there will be no formal awards ceremony this year. We are woking on a digital program and will be anouncing 23rd annual Mayor's Design Award recipients later this year. At this time the City is focusing on Moving Milwaukee Forward Safley and helping to Restart Small Businesses. Thank you for your patience. Please stay safe and stay healthy.
