✨ Big Changes Coming to ART on Grand ✨
As we welcome October, we’re also celebrating nearly a full year since ART on Grand opened its doors. It’s been an incredible journey — full of creativity, community, ups, and downs — but one thing has become clear: this isn’t quite the “retirement” I had imagined. 😊
After a lot of thought, we’ve decided it’s time to shift how we do things. Starting October 12, 2025, ART on Grand will no longer keep regular weekly store hours. Instead, we’ll open our doors for three or four special sales events each year.
Here’s what won’t change:
🎨 Memberships for the ceramics workshop and artist studios will continue.
🪴 Brenda will still offer ceramics classes.
🏛️ And we’ll still be available for private shows, special events, and group exhibitions by appointment — so the space will remain a creative home for our community.
For artists currently displaying work in our South Bay gallery, that part of our operations will wrap up on October 12, 2025. But before then, we have one more special event: NAMI Northwoods’ annual art show will be here October 9–11! All current artists are welcome to keep their work on display through the show — and there’s no charge to show art in October. If you’ve already paid for the month, we’ll refund you.
We’ll share plenty of notice here and by email when new events are planned so you’ll have time to prepare.
💛 Thank you to every artist and visitor who believed in our mission and supported ART on Grand this past year. We’re excited to keep working with you — just in a new, more flexible way.
Stay tuned here for updates on future events, and message us if you’re interested in hosting a private show or special gathering at the gallery.
