Mount Mary traces its roots to St. Mary's Institute, founded by the School Sisters of Notre Dame in Prarie du Chien, Wisconsin, in 1872.  In 1913 The Institute extended its educational program to the post-secondary level and was chartered as Saint Mary's College - the first four-year catholic college for women in Wisconsin to grant degrees.  The college, now located in Milwaukee at 2900 North Menomonee River Parkway, houses the expansive and serene Marian Gallery and is home for the League of Milwaukee Artists, who hold their monthly meetings in one of the beautifully appointed halls on the idyllic campus.
