Massimals MKE: Rainbow

A Celebration of Pride Month

Visit "Massimals MKE: Rainbow," presented by PNC Bank, at Cathedral Square Park

Just in time to celebrate Pride Month in June, "Massimals MKE," by artist Jason Scroggin of Scroggin Studio, made their triumphant return to Cathedral Square Park for the summer. “Massimals MKE: Rainbow,” presented by PNC Bank, celebrates the colors of the LGBTQ+ community. 

Massimals MKE were first introduced in January 2021 as a playful public art installation, constructed with the help of students from UW-Milwaukee's School of Architecture + Urban Planning at the Wisconsin Center. The sculptures were refreshed and painted locally by Bauer Sign Company for the summer of 2021.
