John Michael Kohler Arts Center, Sheboygan

This gem of a museum is well worth a detour when passing to or from Door County or the Upper Peninsula, or even a trip all its own to this pleasant lakeside town. Intelligently curated temporary exhibits showcase innovative artists from throughout the U.S. But the highlight is the changing display drawn from the museum's own superb collection of self-taught artists (a.k.a.
"outsider art"). And don't miss the bathrooms, each of which has been transformed into a fanciful installation by artists commissioned, appropriately enough, by the Kohler Foundation.
