Monday, June 26
Somewhere in mid Leelanau County
John O'Neill is organizing this session so give him a call at 231 325 6400 for more information about the time and location.

Monday, July 3 at 6:00 pm
We're meeting at the tip of the Old Mission Peninsula
Follow Center Highway all the way out to the end of the peninsula. We'll meet at the lighthouse and then go from there. Everyone is welcome! This is sort of smack in the middle of the holiday so feel free to bring family and friends for a beach day and sneak some painting in as well.

Monday, June 19 at Bowers Harbor

We're heading out Old Mission Peninsula for the next painting session on Monday, June 19th. We'll meet at the parking lot of the Boathouse restaurant at 5:30 and then go from there. Head out Old Mission peninsula on Peninsula Drive. The Boathouse is at the end of the peninsula--follow the signs to Bowers Harbor and you'll end up at the right spot. You'll have options for waterviews or meadowviews. There is a field of poppies blooming now, not sure if they'll still be there next week, but maybe?
If you have any questions, email Angela at ams@chartermi.net

John, Angela and a group shot with a hot air balloon launch in the field across the street.

It was a great night for painting with gorgeous evening light that lasted past 9 pm. Such is life in the north.

Monday, June 12 at the DeYoung Farm

We'll be meeting Monday evening at 5:30 pm at the DeYoung Farm off Cherry Bend Road in Leelanau County. It stays light quite late so I'd imagine we'll be out until 9pm or so.

There is a farmhouse and outbuildings and large barn on the property as well as meadow views and lake views of Cedar Lake. Park on Strang Road just to the north of the farm and walk in from there, or park on Cherry Bend Road and walk in. We have permission from the Leelanau Conservancy to paint anywhere except for in quite close to the farmhouse and outbuildings--this area is indicated by mown grass--due to ongoing construction.

Directions from Traverse City: Follow M22 north to the stoplight at Cherry Bend Road. Turn left on Cherry Bend. Travel past the Cherry Bend store, past Lincoln Road, past Orchard Creek Assisted Living and around the bend, and past the Leelanau Farm Market. Just past the farm market you'll see the yellow farmhouse of the DeYoung Farm, and a big red barn on the right side of the street. Strang Road is just past the farmhouse.

Directions from Suttons Bay: Take Center Highway/ CR 633 south until it ends. Turn left on Fouch Road. Follow for a short bit until you see Strang Road on your right.

Questions: email Angela at ams@chartermi.net
