Bucks All-Star Pop-Up at MIAD Gallery at The Ave

Tuesday, January 16 – Tuesday, February 20 2024

MIAD Gallery at The Ave is proud to partner with the Milwaukee Bucks on their newest project in a longstanding collaborative relationship with the Milwaukee Institute of Art & Design (MIAD). MIAD alum and former Bucks intern Bree Vouga ’23 (Communication Design), who is now a Graphic Designer for the basketball team, worked with her colleagues to create posters promoting voting for the Bucks All-Star contenders.

Vouga created the artistic All-Star poster for Brook Lopez, while her colleagues, Alexa Lesinski and Chris Vitek, created posters for the two other All-Star contenders: Damian Lillard and Giannis Antetokounmpo. Vouga says, “Working on the All-Star Campaign has been … a surreal experience. It’s my first large-scale project outside of college, and it’s been beyond rewarding. Vouga also commented on the collaborative nature of her colleagues, who “guided me through my first year … and had large creative voices throughout this whole project.”

Vouga and her colleagues also created smaller player posters for the team, many of which are displayed here. 

Voting is open online through January 20 for the 2024 NBA All-Star Game in Indianapolis. To vote for a 2024 Bucks All-Star, scan the QR code or visit bucks.com/allstar.
