Tucked away on a serene campus in Racine, Wisconsin, there’s a place where change begins ... not through noise, but through quiet reflection, thoughtful dialogue, and bold ideas. This place is The Johnson Foundation at Wingspread, and for decades, it has served as a catalyst for progress on issues ranging from local to global.
At the heart of the property is a stunning Frank Lloyd Wright-designed home, a masterpiece of architecture that sets the tone for what happens here: purposeful gatherings that lead to real solutions. But Wingspread is more than just a venue, it’s a mindset.
Whether it’s a nonprofit board looking to align around a new mission, a corporate team in need of renewed clarity, or community leaders tackling tough challenges, people come to Wingspread with intention. And they leave with insight.
“People come here to find solutions to issues large and small,” shares a Marcus White, President at The Johnson Foundation. “Sometimes it’s very local issues here in our hometown. Sometimes they are global or national. And sometimes it’s a team of colleagues or a board of directors that wants to get away, clear their heads, and find solutions to whatever they’re facing.”
That’s the magic of Wingspread. It isn’t just about the physical beauty; though with its wooded trails, reflective water features, and natural light, that certainly plays a part. It’s about what the space allows people to do. To slow down. To listen. To think deeply. To collaborate more effectively.
The setting itself promotes innovation and clarity. Far from distractions, guests find they can tap into their most creative and solution-oriented selves. As the foundation puts it, “Our guests find that it is relaxing, inspiring, and helps them be innovative.”
In a world that rarely pauses, The Johnson Foundation at Wingspread offers a rare gift: the space to breathe, to connect, and to move forward with purpose.
