2015 Welcome Message

SympLogo

The American Scientific Glassblowers Society cordially invites you to Milwaukee Wisconsin for our 60th annual Symposium held at the beautiful Intercontinental Hotel in the heart of downtown, right on the Milwaukee river. We’ll be located just a few blocks from festivals, shopping, restaurants, bars, parks, and the bustling shore of Lake Michigan, which are all within easy walking distance. Milwaukee, the city of breweries and the home of Harley Davidson, presents itself as a great escape from the high temperatures of summer found elsewhere around the country. The dates of our event fall right in the middle of Bastille Days, which is one of Milwaukee’s largest festivals, and just 4 blocks from the hotel.

The moment you enter the hotel you encounter a luxurious atmosphere that can be found throughout the entirety in this four-star establishment. The rooms are large, comfortable, gorgeous, and each has a wonderful view of the city. The hotel offers several restaurants and bars, along with indoor activities from Ping-Pong to bocce ball. We have quite possibly the most accessible location of any hotel in the area to all of the fun downtown Milwaukee has to offer.
