MILWAUKEE — If you have family coming to Milwaukee this weekend, be sure to check out these events, courtesy of Claire Koenig, the communications manager for Visit Milwaukee.
- See the Pabst Mansion decorations against the moonlight Friday night. It is the best way to see Capt. Frederick Pabst’s house, and it’s all set to live music.
- Have tea at Schuster Mansionor the Pfister.It is not a holiday tradition, but a little high tea never hurt anyone.
- Head to the Basilica for "Handel's Messiah,"performed by the Milwaukee Symphony Orchestra. The acoustics are ideal for the symphony.
