Milwaukee parents and children have a new destination for artistic exploration: Creative Chaos, an art studio that has opened its doors at 2221 E Capitol Drive,. Shorewood, WI.
This studio is a multi-functional space that combines a tinker lab, art studio, and sensory play area designed for children of all ages.
