Her home is a local landmark. Her creative and artistic spirit is legendary. But the true legacy Mary L. Nohl leaves can be found through the work of her Greater Milwaukee Foundation fund.

The Mary L. Nohl Fund, among the largest funds created at the Foundation, invests in local arts education programs and projects. It also provides necessary financial support for local established and emerging artists through the Mary L. Nohl Fund Individual Artist Program, which is supported through the Nohl Fund but administered by the Bradley Family Foundation.

Since its inception in 2001, the Nohl Fund has invested more than $8.5 million in the creative spirit and culture in Milwaukee through programs and projects.
