Milwaukee's historic East Side goes modern with Jan Serr Studio, an industrial meets modern events space located on the top floor of UWM's Kenilworth Square East building. Floor-to-ceiling windows and a private penthouse balcony offer unbeatable ambiance and views stretching from Lake Michigan to Milwaukee's Downtown Skyline. Jan Serr Studio's modern industrial interior pays homage to the building's origins as a Ford Motor Company plant. Renovated into a spacious, airy studio, the venue also offers a first-floor gallery to greet guests with the same style and charisma characteristic of Milwaukee's vibrant East Side. Reviewers praise Jan Serr Studio as a "dream for a modern, industrial-chic wedding," with its stunning cityscape backdrop, tall ceilings, and abundance of natural light. The venue's convenient location, close to artistic graffiti walls and the Oak Leaf Trail, adds to its urban appeal. Couples and their guests have enjoyed the "magical" ambiance, particularly in the evenings when the city lights create a captivating atmosphere. The staff, especially the coordinator Katie, have been consistently praised for their friendliness, responsiveness, and helpful coordination throughout the planning process and event. The catering, bartending, and overall experience have also received high marks from attendees. Whether hosting a wedding, corporate event, or other special occasion, Jan Serr Studio offers a unique, modern industrial space with unparalleled views and a dedicated team to ensure a memorable experience.

I visited the studio for a concert of new music. The sweeping views from the windows was wonderful. The entire building is filled with art studios and galleries. A true asset for Mikwaukee.
