A Message from the Calumet Art Center

CLASS CANCELLATION POLICY:

The Calumet Art Center does not refund class fees unless we cancel the class. A student who does not make it to the class will be given a credit for the fee amount that can be used for any other class we offer that will be good for 90 days.

MISSION STATEMENT   The Mission of Calumet Art Center, Inc. is to create a safe learning environment where art, culture, and history inspire and challenge people of the Keweenaw.

Calumet Art Center creates a rare integration of human creativity and scholarship that strengthens an appreciation of historic and cultural values and encourages varied modes of unique expression.

The Calumet Art Center has entered a period of change, growth and restructuring. We appreciate the support of our community and all it has given us in the past and hope you will continue with us as we enter this new period. We need the support and assistance of everyone to strengthen our mission, purpose and goals.
