Founded in 1961 by Melitta Hedwig Suder-Pick with an initial collection of three hundred paintings and drawings by her great uncle Carl von Marr, the Museum of Wisconsin Art has grown into a collection representing more than three hundred artists and spanning two hundred years of American art history. Today MOWA operates two permanent venues, its West Bend home and MOWA | DTN in downtown Milwaukee, and describes itself as "a different kind of museum" built around the idea that enjoying art should be easy and welcoming. The West Bend museum's award-winning building sits along the Milwaukee River and offers 12,000 square feet of gallery space alongside a mix of indoor and outdoor settings available for private events, from intimate gatherings of ten guests to celebrations of up to 150.
