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:Powerful Tools for Caregivers Workshop
DESCRIPTION:Powerful Tools for Caregivers\, a six-week workshop\, designed for the non-professional\, informal family caregiver\, will be held on Thursdays\, August 21 – September 25th\, 1:00 – 2:30 pm at the Negaunee Senior Center\, 410 Jackson Street\, Negaunee.\nResearch studies find high rates of depression and anxiety among caregivers and increased vulnerability to health problems. Caregivers frequently cite restriction of personal activities and social life as problems. In addition\, caregivers often feel a lack of control over events and a sense of powerlessness which can have a significant negative impact on their physical and emotional health. The Powerful Tools for Caregivers program will provide caregivers tools to help reduce stress and increase relaxation\, make tough decisions\, reduce guilt\, anger and depression\, communicate effectively\, set goals and problem solve\, and take better care of themselves while caring for a relative or friend. Caregivers will benefit from the workshop whether they are helping a parent\, spouse\, or friend living at home\, in long-term care or across the country. The workshop focuses on self-care for the caregiver\, not on specific diseases or hands-on caregiving.\nPowerful Tools for Caregivers is offered by Upper Peninsula Commission for Area Progress (UPCAP) in partnership with Lake Superior Life Care and Hospice. There is no charge for this workshop\, but registration is required. Class size is limited. Registration ends when the class is full or on August 8.\nTo register\, visit www.upcap.org (click on Events) or call 2-1-1 Monday through Friday\, 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. for assistance.\nPTC flyer w LSH in person 082125-092525

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:St. Paul’s Episcopal Church of Marquette will host “1875: Peter White at St. Paul’s” on Sunday September 21\, 2025 at 4:00 pm at the church at 201 East Ridge Street in Marquette.  The event is a celebration of the history of St. Paul’s during the 150th anniversary of our sanctuary building.  Jim Koski of Q107 radio and the Marquette Historical Society will host the event which features an appearance by “Peter White” himself to help narrate and explain his family’s history with St. Paul’s. \nJim Koski will present pictures of Marquette in 1875 and photos of St. Paul’s when the sanctuary was new.  He will also highlight photos of the church as it has evolved over the last 150 years. Chip Truscon will portray Peter White to help explain White’s history in the community and at St. Paul’s.  Music will be provided by Jan Brodersen\,  and a string trio featuring Janis Peterson\,  Inga Banitt\, andWendy Larson.  The event will conclude with a reception and Q&A session in the Morgan White Memorial chapel\, which contains the “Resurrection” window commissioned by Peter White from Tiffany of New York.   \n“It’s so wonderful to be able to shake hands with our 150 year old history by welcoming Jim Koski’s historic knowledge and Chip Truscon who will “play” Peter White back at St. Paul’s church. He and Jim Koski are well practiced in bringing our history to life\, just as our congregation looks forward to setting the foundation for the next 150 years\,”  noted Jim Edwards\, member of St. Paul’s congregation and coordinator of the 1875 Peter White at St. Paul’s event. \nAdmission will be free\, and donations will be accepted.  All donations will benefit St. Paul’s Building Restoration fund as the church seeks to match the grant it received from the National Fund for Sacred Places.   The NFSP grant will help St. Paul’s address urgent structural needs\, ensuring its continued role as a gathering place for worship\, outreach\, and community activities into the next 150 years.
