Amy Lipson, LTC Conservation Specialist, and her husband Joe Lipson, owner of Mycotorphy LLC (a local business offering guided mushrooming adventures) will co-lead a foraging adventure to look for interesting fungi, and maybe even find some choice edibles! This mushroom hike will be primarily an on-trail guided walk. If there are not many mushrooms out due to dry weather, we will shift to a standard nature hike.

Hopefully we will have good mushroom weather and be able to find lots of honey-mushrooms! ADDRESS: 10251 Brutus Road, Brutus

What if an art space didn’t have to be a gallery, theater, or museum?

Living rooms, vacant storefronts, barns, community spaces, and other unexpected places can create new opportunities for artists and audiences to connect. This Caffeinated Conversation invites participants to expand our thinking about where art can happen and explore the potential for non-traditional art spaces across Northwest Michigan.

Facilitated by Katrina Daniels, the conversation will draw inspiration from successful examples of alternative art spaces while inviting participants to imagine possibilities within their own communities. This is a collaborative conversation, not a presentation. Come ready to share ideas, learn from others, and imagine new places for art to take root across our region.

This session is designed for:
Artists and creative workers
Art & culture professionals / administrators
Community leaders and organizers
Anyone curious about creating new spaces for art

Workshop is free but must register to attend.
