With every lapping wave, lingering sunset or star-studded evening sky, each moment gives us a renewed opportunity to be inspired, connected and engaged. At the Grand Marais Art Colony, the beauty of nature surrounds and nurtures us. It is within this atmosphere that we can disconnect from the distractions of daily life and reconnect with our innate creative spirits. We can be more fully present and focused to pursue our artistic endeavors. Whether you seek artistic instruction, a rejuvenating retreat into a professional art studio, active participation in an art-centered festival event or a deeper appreciation of art; this year at the Art Colony there are many opportunities to immerse yourself in a creative experience surrounded by an engaged and supportive community. We are really excited about our new Artist-in-Residence program, which will feature artist Hazel Belvo this first year. Not only will Ms. Belvo produce a major body of large-scale work during her time at the Art Colony, she will also host three lectures and daily open studios for the public to learn, observe and experience the artistic process. Another new event is the Northern Fibers Retreat, a cozy festival in the heart of winter that celebrates the art and craft of fiber in a community of fellow fiber enthusiasts. These new events join our program roster that includes over 100 classes, six other events and studio access in our four professional art studios. Let this new year be an endless horizon of creative exploration. Enter our community where strangers become friends and the artistic process is nurtured with support and authenticity. See you soon! Sincerely, Amy Demmer Executive Director Learning. Inspiration. Creation. Celebration.
