SUMMARY: Emily Lanctot Salaiset Ruokaohjeet: Secret Recipes 
DESCRIPTION:Finlandia Art Gallery  presents\n Emily Lanctot Salaiset Ruokaohjeet: Secret Recipes\nFebruary 5 – March 5\, 2026\nArtist Reception: Thursday\, February 5\, 7-8:30pm\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nHANCOCK\, Michigan — How do you think about recipes? Are they universal tools that carry the same meaning and purpose for all\, or are they personal reminders of a loved one or shared experience? Could they be all these things and more?\n For artist Emily Lanctot\, they are the subject and inspiration for her exhibition “Salaiset Ruokaohjeet: Secret Recipes” which will be displayed at Finlandia Art Gallery February 5 through March 5\, 2026.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nMost of the paintings in this exhibition are based on recipes from people of Michigan’s Copper Country\, sourced from locals and community cookbooks.\n “In my research\, I uncovered recipes from family members and friends that I didn’t previously know existed\,” Lanctot explained. One cookbook\, “500 Recipes of the Copper Country’s Finest Cooking\,” was produced by the same church that later became the Finnish American Heritage Center where Lanctot’s paintings will be on display. Another cookbook produced in Copper Harbor\, “Copper Country Recipes\,” contained a recipe from Lanctot’s childhood neighbor and the first director of the Finlandia Art Gallery\, Phyllis Fredendall. With bursts of color and texture\, Lanctot brings people together across space and time while welcoming viewers into a sensory experience like a shared meal.\n\n“I hope the exhibition inspires people to gather and share recipes and ways of making (rather than keep them secret) from loved ones and friends and encourages viewers to reimagine how they might approach their everyday lives\,” said Lanctot.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nEmily Lanctot is an artist\, curator\, professor and museum director at Northern Michigan University in Marquette\, Michigan. Her multi-media art practice focuses on place\, material culture\, and the everyday. Projects\, whether experiential\, painting\, performance or installation\, are often collaborative and examine memory\, desire\, exchange\, the limitations of language\, and institutional/ideological frameworks.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n A reception for the artist will take place at Finlandia Art Gallery in Hancock on Thursday\, February 5 from 7-8:30 p.m. with artist talk beginning at 7:20 p.m. The event is free and open to the public. Visitors are also welcome Monday through Friday 8:30am-4:30pm. For more information call 906-370-3722 or visit www.finlandiaartgallery.com.

SUMMARY:The Marquette Regional History Center presents the Special Exhibit: The U.P. Through 250 Artifacts
DESCRIPTION:February 23\, 2026-January 2\, 2027 \nThis exhibit showcases two hundred and fifty artifacts\, photographs\, and documents from our permanent collections. These objects connect local history to the national story while commemorating the 250th anniversary of the U.S. Declaration of Independence. \nMichigan’s Upper Peninsula has often seemed remote from the rest of the country. However\, the themes and movements of U.S. history can be seen here as well\, especially since the War of 1812. When the country braced for the Civil War\, U.P. iron miners raced to uncover iron for the Union army’s railroads and ammunitions. When labor movements exploded following World War II\, Ishpeming’s Gossard garment factory went on strike for better wages. Objects rarely on display include the medal awarded to a local Spanish American War nurse and a hand sewn battle flag brought home by a soldier from the War of 1812.  Visit marquettehistory.org or call 906.226.3571 for more info.
