One of our favorite galleries is the Michigan Artists Gallery or the "MAG" located right here in Suttons Bay, MI. Luckily, it is run by one of our good friends, Sue Ann Round. Over the years, she has held tons of events that have benefited our community. Some of them she orchestrated for the entire town and some for the gallery. In either case, they typically bring in hundreds to over a thousand to our town to shop.
Last night was an example of the latter. To celebrate the gallery's 15th anniversary, she held "the mighty miniature show" where pieces are no larger than 7" x 7." This showcased the work of over 60 artists with many in attendance, hors d'oeuvres, wine and music. Since we are art lovers and knew many of the shoppers we went for the entire event. It was a huge success in our eyes, we had a fabulous time, and got some wonderful art!

At the presumptuous risk of speaking for your friends and colleagues, Sue Ann, we sincerely thank you for all that you do for Suttons Bay and for the art community; your loving soul touches us all!
