MARQUETTE — The city of Marquette Office of Arts & Culture invites the community to participate in drop-in Art Week Brainstorming and Planning Meetings from 2-4 p.m. and 5-6:45 p.m. Tuesday at the Marquette Arts & Culture Center (lower level of the Peter White Public Library in Marquette).

These informal sessions provide a space to explore project ideas, find inspiration and connect with others. Attendees are welcome to stay for any portion of the meeting–attendance is optional and not required to submit a project proposal.

Sessions will focus on 2025 events, partnership opportunities, this year’s theme–Stories, revisiting past Art Week projects and exploring event venues.
