SUMMARY:Northern Tier\, an exhibition of oil paintings by Finnish American artist Eric Aho
DESCRIPTION:The Finlandia Art Gallery and Finlandia Foundation National (FFN) are pleased to present Northern Tier\, an exhibition of oil paintings by Finnish American artist Eric Aho. The exhibit will be on display from September 18 to November 13\, 2025\, at the Finlandia Art Gallery\, located in the Finnish American Heritage Center in Hancock.  \nA reception for the artist will take place on Thursday\, October 9\, from 7:00 to 8:30 p.m.\, with an artist talk beginning at 7:20 p.m. The reception is free and open to the public. Refreshments will be served. \nAho will also be participating in Finlandia Foundation’s first Artist in Residency program\, coming to the Copper Country in early October to find inspiration in our lush forests and pristine shoreline. During his residency\, Aho will complete several finished artworks which will be on display alongside 25 works sent from his Vermont studio.  \nFFN recognized Eric Aho as Artist of the Year from 2022-2024\, honoring his outstanding contributions to contemporary art and celebrating his deep connections to his Finnish American culture and traditions. This exhibition and residency serve as a culmination to his contributions as Artist of the Year. \nAho is a third-generation Finnish American living in Vermont. His grandfather emigrated to the United States in 1903\, followed by his grandmother and uncle in 1906. His aunt and father were born in the Finnish community of Sugar Creek\, Ohio\, in 1917 and 1920\, respectively. Shortly after his father’s birth\, the family relocated to the vibrant Finnish community in Fitchburg and Townsend\, Massachusetts. \nAho maintains strong personal and professional ties to his ancestral Finland and credits his Finnish American upbringing as a continuing source of inspiration and influence in his work. \nHis paintings represent the Finnish way of life\, strongly connected to nature\, sauna and community. In his Finlandia Art Gallery exhibit Northern Tier\, Aho will exhibit paintings that are shaped by both memory and direct observation of northern boreal forests\, forests that stretch across high northern latitudes. Providing a particularly rich and complex subject for Aho\, northern boreal forests represent both a biome and a wellspring for his imagination. For many years\, Aho has painted across vast geographic locations\, from the northern United States to the Laurentian Mountains of Canada\, and across to Scandinavia and the Finnish taiga. \n“These trees-along with their verdant understories and varied terrains\, often punctuated by streams\, rapids\, and glacial erratics-register in my eye and imagination as the forests central to our archetypal associations\,” says Aho. “My forest paintings\, like much of my work\, invite multiple meanings and interpretations. I’m inclined to suggest unseen human presence in the forest through the materiality of paint itself. Oil color oozes and tenses\, puckers and shines\, drawing our attention to the human-like qualities of the forest beyond the limbs\, trunks\, veins\, and crowns we share in common.” \n“Forests are wild and mysterious places\, but they are also familiar refuges\,” continues Aho. “At times\, they’re grand and architectural-cathedral-like\, with arcades\, columns\, vaults\, and aisles. Other woods are smaller and feel intimate. Their spaces\, organized like rooms\, hallways\, foyers\, and thresholds\, evoke the places we live in and inhabit. In these ways\, the Northern Tier paintings are as much about worlds within the forested places as they are about the world of paint and its magical ability to transform space and time.” \nNorthern Tier will be on display through November 13\, 2025.

SUMMARY:Superior Shipwrecks Exhibit Opens at Beaumier Center
DESCRIPTION:The Beaumier U.P. Heritage Center at Northern Michigan University will open a new exhibition titled “Gales of November: Shipwrecks on Lake Superior” at noon on Friday\, Sept. 19\, in its gallery in Gries Hall. \nFrom the earliest days of sailing vessels on Lake Superior\, November has taken its toll on the maritime trade. This exhibit will look at some of the more famous and fascinating shipwrecks that led to either the disappearance of a vessel or its eventual destruction.   \nIn November\, large arctic air masses in Alaska and Canada begin to make their way southeast across the lakes\, while low-pressure systems from the Gulf of Mexico travel northward toward the lakes. When these systems collide over the Great Lakes\, it creates a very unstable weather pattern that can essentially turn into an inland hurricane. One nickname for these storms is the “Witch of November\,” characterized by gale-force winds\, massive waves and quick-changing weather patterns.  \nNovember will mark the 50th anniversary of the sinking of the “Edmund Fitzgerald” and the story of that tragedy will be chronicled in the exhibit. Other shipwrecks that will be featured include the “Algoma” (1885)\, “Bannockburn” (1902)\, “Lucerne” (1886)\, “Myron” (1919) and many others. Each section will feature images of these ships\, copies of weather maps from the day they sank\, and newspaper headlines of some of the storms that wrecked their havoc on Lake Superior shipping. There will also be several artifacts on display from various Lake Superior shipwrecks on loan from Isle Royale National Park. \nVisitors can also view a selection of drawings on display by the noted maritime artist Ed Pusick that feature his dramatic interpretations of various shipwrecks\, including the “Edmund Fitzgerald.” These drawings are on loan from the Fred Stonehouse collection at the Marquette Maritime Museum. Pusick (1927-2006) was a Navy veteran and architectural illustrator\, best known as the “Master of Disaster” for his detailed illustrations of Great Lakes shipwrecks. After a military accident disabled him\, he pursued his passion for drawing\, creating influential shipwreck art that was featured on the History Channel\, in museums and in books by historians such as Fred Stonehouse.  \nThe exhibition will be on display in the Beaumier Center’s gallery through Dec. 20 and is free and open to the public. The Beaumier Center is open from noon to 5 p.m. Monday-Friday and from noon to 4 p.m. Saturdays.

DESCRIPTION:Take a hike with us through a beautiful forest of pines and hardwoods to the picturesque Little Garlic River Falls. The hike begins on Harrison Rd/Little Garlic Rd where the spur to the falls begins. We will be hiking the well defined\, 1.2 mile trail to the falls. Upon returning on the same trail\, we will then continue onto the Elliott Donnelly trail along the north bank of the Little Garlic River with vistas of the river below. (Note: we will initially meet at the Elliott Donnelly Trailhead to spot some vehicles.)  \nOur hike will be led by Dennis Fattaleh\, an experienced group hike leader. \nThis hike will cover approximately 5 miles of terrain and is an intermediate hike. This is a good hike for less experienced hikers to build confidence and stamina. Proper hiking boots are required. Expect a few wet spots and plan on 3 to 4 hours of hiking time. Don’t forget to bring water and a snack! Trekking poles can be helpful on this route for those who use them. \nWe’ll meet on Saturday\, October 18th at 10:00 AM at the Elliott Donnelly Trailhead parking lot located on the north side of the Little Garlic River on CR550 (Google Map link here). Reminder: you’ll need a Michigan Recreation Pass to park in the parking lot. From there\, we will load into about half the vehicles to drive 1.6 miles to the parking pullout on Harrison Rd/Little Garlic Rd. Please be open to having fellow hikers in your vehicle to help with staging cars at both ends. \nThis event is limited to 15 participants and advanced registration is required.
