What Our Friends Say

“My sister, Melissa, and I started Southside Sippers in May 2025. We were approached by Allison at our second event and were asked if we would be interested in vending at Davidson Park for the Friday movie nights. We were so honored and appreciative of being asked by such a large company. From our first day Davidson Park has felt like home for us. The park is beautiful and such a gem in the city. The Davidson Park team is amazing and so easy to work with. Communication is excellent, and we are always treated with respect and kindness. We look forward to being a part of their events next year and years to come!”

— Patty Diaz, Co-Owner of Southside Sippers

“With its beautiful space, truly unique playground and awesome programming, Davidson Park has become a standout destination for our family since its opening. We’ve especially enjoyed the ‘movie nights’ with our younger children and the collection of local vendors on site during our most recent visit really adds to the experience. And of course, who doesn’t love complimentary popcorn!”

— Matthew Schmaling

“Davidson Park is special to me because it’s a true gathering space that reflects the spirit of the Near West Side. Davidson Park programming is vibrant and diverse, bringing together people from all over the Milwaukee area and beyond to relax, play, celebrate, and connect. I love watching families exploring the park together, enjoying the unique playground, running around the Hub, and spreading out on the hills to watch a movie. I also love to watch the natural planting in the park change with the seasons, from the Spring and Summer blooms to the Fall colors, it’s a beautiful addition to the Near West Side!”

— Lindsey St. Arnold Bell, Executive Director of Near West Side Partners
