The Milwaukee Art Museum addition was recently completed (2001). The amazing thing is that the building can be considered kinetic sculpture. The "wings" of the Brise Soleil open or close, which control how much sunlight enters the atrium.
The art on the inside isn't all bad, either. There are usually some wacky installations that feature LED signs or electric motors, along with Old Masters and 20th Century Modern.
If that doesn't do anything for you, I'll buy you a beer that doesn't suck.
If you visit between June and September, there are usually festivals for any occasion (we learned to appreciate summer weather around here). Summerfest is by far the biggest, with possibly the most musical groups playing this side of South by Southwest.
Sounds suspiciously like the Underpants Gnomes' business model.
