History.

The Art Guild at Grow Benzie is a collective of artists and art lovers.  The collective works in pursuit of supporting, sustaining, creating, and inspiring art-related activities in Benzie County and our region. 

The guild works to foster community resiliency, raise awareness of social issues, and heighten the urgency of self-care through artistic expression and inspiration.  The guild’s mission is to bring exposure, access, and community to rural artists - living, or connected to, Northern Michigan.

Goals.

  1. Offering community-based art workshops for artisans of all skill levels.
  2. Increasing access to the arts for all.
  3. Celebrating and uplifting art in its many forms.
