I recently had the pleasure of attending Alive a Fine's annual Easter event for the 2nd year in a row, and I must say, it was a fantastic experience! The free egg hunt for kids, complete with treats and candy is such a heartwarming touch and it was so fun to see the look on my son's face as he opened the eggs. They also have drinks for kids (and adults) which are very appreciated! The owner and staff of Alive a Fine exudes kindness, which reflects in the warm and welcoming atmosphere of the store. It's evident that they take great care in curating their selection of cool clothing and housewares, creating a space that appeals to a wide range of tastes. Overall, the Easter event at Alive a Fine is a wonderful tradition for the community, and we look forward to attending for years to come. It's an opportunity to enjoy the festivities, support local artists like Margaret Muza who does beautiful tintype photography during the event, and discover unique treasures in the store. I highly recommend Alive a Fine to anyone looking for a memorable shopping experience coupled with community engagement.

Super cool shop! The most thoughtful and engaging art and immersive experiences. Well styled, ever changing, and some of the best true vintage around. Also contributes to our city as the host to other important Milwaukee events like One Trick Pony (vintage flea) and Hovercraft (Milwaukee's premier handmade event).

We stopped by on a recent trip to Milwaukee and loved this spot! It was our favorite on a street with several other vintage stores we visited. Though a smaller store, I found it well curated and very reasonably priced for vintage. Looking forward to visiting again next time we’re in town!
