The BIG Art Show

Art for all tastes and pocketbooks! The BIG Art Show by Big Brothers Big Sisters will once again take place downtown in Pennsylvania Park. Over 50 artists and crafters from across Michigan will display their creative wares 10:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. on Saturday, August 17.

A wide variety of arts and crafts for all tastes and prices will be available, including garden art, painting, jewelry, stonework, pottery, homemade body products and foods like syrup and honey, quilts, totes, clothing, woodwork, glass and rustic art.

The exhibition is growing, and there's still room for more. Interested artists and crafters may download and submit a registration form, along with slides or photographs of their work to the Big Brother Big Sisters of Northwest Michigan.

For the eighth year in a row, Big Brothers Big Sisters of Northwestern Michigan (BIGS-NW) will be hosting this event. All proceeds for vendor space will go toward the BIGS-NW program in the Petoskey area.

If you have any questions, please call (231) 946-2447.

Proceeds from The BIG Art Show (formally organized by the Petoskey Area Jaycees) will help match at-risk children in the Petoskey area who have asked and are waiting for a Big Brother or Big Sister of their own. Big Brothers Big Sisters of Northwest Michigan is the region’s longest serving youth mentoring organization and is dedicated to nurturing the emotional, social, and educational needs of children by facilitating professionally supported one-to-one mentor relationships.
