The Whirling Wonders of Milwaukee, WI: A Spin with the Bronzeballs at the Golda

Hop on over to Milwaukee, WI and follow the spin with the Bronzeballs in the garden courtyard of the Golda Meir Library. Don't want to miss the vibes!

In the fondly-known cheese-loving city of Milwaukee, WI, three whirling bronze discs, looking like a joyous kaleidoscope, dance in a pond within a hidden garden courtyard outside the Golda Meir Library. As lively as a Wisconsin wind, these discs have been capturing the hearts of passersby since 1967. These spinning wonders are the handiwork of James Wines, a fellow who artistically blended the organic, mechanical, and drew inspiration from the design principles of Louis Sullivan and Frank Lloyd Wright. The courtyard itself is the result of a groundbreaking collaboration between Wines and the library's very own architect. So, if you're in search of a laid-back, Wisconsin-style adventure, don't forget to drop by the Golda Meir Library on your travels.
