Network E-News, 9/2/2021

Bravo to Summer, Hello to New Seasons

As the seasons start to shift, the curtain is closing on Summer 2021. Congratulations to all who navigated re-opening, creative reshaping and ongoing pandemic pivots as we all continue to work through COVID challenges and recovery. Parallel 45 aptly named this the summer of the cultural comeback. It has not been easy but arts and culture has shone in the spotlight and helped our region recover. Bravo to all…and thank you! 

And now – we welcome new seasons with new programming, performances, exhibitions, classes and, likely, more challenges to come. Please share your news, needs and opportunities – for the E-News or post to the website, Facebook & Instagram. Help us promote you, support each other and continue to build capacity for the artists, organizations, projects and communities to create the NW MI Arts & Culture Network.
