Mississippi Sippin’ | Summer 2025
Immerse yourself in the sights, sounds, and creative spirit of the Driftless Region with Mississippi Sippin’, MMAM’s beloved summer music series. Set against the stunning backdrop of the Mississippi River, this all-ages event invites you to unwind with live outdoor performances, artist trunk shows from the Shoppe MMAM, and culinary delights from special guest partners. Plus, sip on beverages from MMAM’s newest creation, the Water Bar Cafe + Provisions.
Looking to cool off? Step inside the museum’s climate-controlled galleries, where 20,000 square feet of world-class marine-inspired art await. From live music and handcrafted drinks to paintings, photography, and sculpture, Mississippi Sippin’ is a celebration of the many ways water inspires art.
Join us for a perfect summer evening—where the river, creativity, and community flow together.
