Women of Distinction 2026: Off Leash MKE

In 2016, Lori Riegler founded Off Leash MKE. Ten years later, the dog-walking business has grown from a one-person operation to a trusted team. After Lori Riegler moved back to her hometown of Milwaukee, she took on a side gig walking dogs. A volunteer at the Humane Society, Riegler had always been passionate about animals and enjoyed the work – but soon she realized that it didn’t have to be part time. “Within about eight months I was able to leave my job and start walking dogs full time,” she says.

New public museum on track to open in 2027

The new Milwaukee Public Museum is on track to open to the public in the first half of 2027, the museum’s president said. On Thursday, MPM President and CEO Ellen Censky during a tour of the museum’s first floor said construction is expected to conclude in the second quarter. A specific date hasn’t been announced yet. To finish off the new building, located on the corner of McKinley Avenue and Sixth Street, builders are drywalling the remaining curves on the first floor of the main atrium, polishing the concrete flooring until it resembles Milwaukee’s three rivers and installing model fish to finish off the design’s nod to the city’s indigenous and freshwater roots.
