Learn about Ryan Laessig
Ryan Laessig is the man, the myth, the legend behind the Milwaukee Makers Market, which was voted Best Of in Shepard Express’ “Best Art & Craft Fair” category in 2020, 2021, 2022, and 2023. Laessig was also featured in Milwaukee Magazine as the Face of Makers Markets in 2023.
What started in 2015 as a small outdoor event in the Colectivo Bay View parking lot has grown into the largest, longest-running monthly markets where makers and guests fill venues like Discovery World Museum, The Ivy House, and local venues. Loyal fans know that MMM creates a safe, fun and unique market experience. With no at-the-door admission fee, anyone and everyone is welcome to shop or browse.
Outside of M.M.M, Laessig is a photographer, mixed media artist, street art stylist, and teacher.

Our theme for May is VIBRANT.
It was chosen by our San Antonio chapter and illustrated by Isabel Ann Castro.
When was the last time you experienced something that made you feel more alive?
Heard a melody pulsing with a beat that made your body move. Taken in the view of a lush landscape or sparkling city skyline bursting with light and shadows. Locked eyes with a striking stranger. Poured yourself into prose that crackles off the page with electricity. Lost track of time in a conversation punctuated by spirited laughter. Stopped in your tracks in front of a canvas in a museum or a mural on the street with colors so bold and bright it popped from the paint straight into your synapses.
It might not happen every day. But you can live a life full of energy and enthusiasm. You can strive to bring brightness into every interaction.
Because our world is full of all kinds of vibrant masterpieces. And you are one of them.
