SUMMARY:2026 Spring Show: Bees!
DESCRIPTION:Bees!\nMilwaukee County Parks has spent years documenting something extraordinary — our urban park system has become one of the most important strongholds for native bee populations in the state. Tucked between farmland and freeways\, 10\,000+ acres of natural areas offer something increasingly rare: refuge. \nAnd the bees have repaid us in full. \nBut here’s what many people don’t realize — the conservation story doesn’t stop at the park’s edge. Every bloom in Milwaukee County is part of something bigger. \nAnd this spring\, that story has a home at the Domes. BEES! highlights several types of native Wisconsin bees in a landscape fit for a bumblebee’s playground — surrounded by hydrangeas\, spring bulbs\, and eight one-of-a-kind sculptures made from recycled metal. \nDiscover the vital role these incredible pollinators play in our gardens\, ecosystems\, and lives. Beauty is in the eye of the BEE-holder. \nApril 4 – May 25\, 2026. \n* There are no live bees in the Domes.
