The city, along with program partner Spirit of Milwaukee, announced the program in May when four sponsorsthe Milwaukee Brewers, We Energies, Funjet Vacations/Mark Travel and Marcus Hotels/Marcus Theatres each agreed to purchase a $50,000 to $65,000 sign. The signs features Milwaukees iconic Calatrava Brise Soleil at the Milwaukee Art Museum along with the name of a local sponsoring corporation or organization headquartered in Milwaukee.
