Take a Walk on the Artistic Side

Feb. 24, 2024

The Jordan Art Walk Committee of East Jordan is putting out the call: Are there any northern Michigan sculpture artists hoping to display their work? This is the fourth year of the program, which helps bring artwork to the trail on the South Arm of Lake Charlevoix. (Learn more about the Art Walk at jordanartwalk.org.) Sculptures must be nature-themed, able to stand up to the elements in all four seasons, and have a safe design. Selected works will be in place for three years, and the chosen artists will receive a $600 stipend in addition to the opportunity to sell their work. Entries are open now through April 15, 2024, and up to three digital entries can be submitted at callforentry.org. Contact the East Jordan Area Chamber of Commerce for more information at (231) 536-7351.
