MKE Books & Beers Events:

At MKE Books & Beers, we strive to create more than just a book fair. Our outdoor events bring the community together in a fun and welcoming atmosphere. Located in the heart of Milwaukee’s Deer District, our events are a celebration of local culture, small businesses, and, of course, the joy of reading. With a variety of vendors offering book-related items and accessories, food, and beverages, there’s something for everyone to enjoy. Whether you're discovering new books, learning about local resources, or just enjoying a drink with friends, MKE Books & Beers offers an unforgettable experience that brings people closer together through the shared love of reading.

Supporting Local Small Businesses:

One of the core values of MKE Books & Beers is supporting local small businesses. As a small business owner myself, I understand the challenges and triumphs of the journey, and I want to help other small business owners succeed. Our events provide these entrepreneurs with an opportunity to showcase their products, meet the community, and make meaningful sales. By highlighting their creativity and talents, we not only promote the success of these businesses but also keep money flowing within the local community. Every purchase made at our events supports a small business, keeping Milwaukee’s economy strong and vibrant.

Our Partnership with the Milwaukee Bucks:

The partnership between MKE Books & Beers and the Milwaukee Bucks has been a game changer for our mission to promote literacy and community engagement. Through this collaboration, we’re able to host our events in the bustling Deer District, one of Milwaukee’s most popular locations, allowing us to reach a wider audience. The Bucks’ support has helped us spread awareness of our cause, drawing attention to the importance of reading and literacy in our community. Their involvement has also allowed us to elevate our events, providing a platform for local small businesses and giving people of all ages the chance to discover new books, enjoy delicious drinks, and connect with one another in a fun, outdoor setting.

At MKE Books & Beers, we believe in the transformative power of books and the importance of bringing people together through shared experiences. Our future goal is to provide free books and reading resources to those in need while fostering a vibrant community of readers of all ages. 

By hosting unique outdoor book fairs in Milwaukee's Deer District, we celebrate local small businesses, promote literacy, and offer a space for everyone to enjoy books, connect with others, and discover new stories.
