ACT LOCAL, THINK GLOBAL
LOCATION
We’re based in Milwaukee
WAGET’s home is Milwaukee. Through its base at 1125 at Pabst and with Blue Ribbon Management it purses the vision of Milwaukee being a “showroom, classroom and meeting point” for persons – especially young persons -- of different cultures from different regions of Wisconsin, the Midwest, and the World.
The Deer District
WAGET’s home is just “up the hill” from the Deer District. The district is historically important to Milwaukee as a meeting place. Once called Haymarket Square (where the horses got fed and watered), the space now is envisioned as an all-city, multi-cultural gathering and entertainment place.
The Brewery
With our home in the Brewery District, WAGET honors the memory of Joseph J. Zilber, whose vision for historic preservation and sustainability is felt throughout the District. We are inspired by Mr. Zilber’s commitment to the well-being of individuals, families, and neighborhoods in Milwaukee.
WISCONSIN
The Dairy State
WAGET has its roots in Wisconsin and has adjusted Wisconsin Ideal and knowledge to create social and economic value for all.
THE MIDWEST
America's Heartland
WAGET believes in the Heartland. Its programs have reached into Iowa and Illinois as well as rural Wisconsin. It also believes in the future of the Midwest which can bring good opportunities to youths.
