Islamic Society of Milwaukee

This year, the Islamic Society of Milwaukee (ISM) is celebrating the 40th Anniversary of its main facility in Milwaukee!

The ISM owns and operates three Islamic Centers and will be holding its “Doors Open” event at its main facility on the south side of Milwaukee. Visit the ISM to see how a closed public school building (formerly New Road School) was expanded to accommodate the community’s growing Muslim population.

• Visit a Muslim prayer hall and learn about architectural features found in every mosque.
• Learn about different styles of Islamic calligraphy.
• Discover why Islamic art focuses on the abstract.
• Have your name written in Arabic.

Visitors will have an opportunity to tour the entire building and have their questions answered.
