The City of Marquette proudly presents the 2024 City of Marquette Art Week, June 24th to June 29th. This annual event brings together local artists, organizations, and businesses for a week-

long celebration of arts and culture. All events are FREE and FAMILY FRIENDLY. This year, the Art Week theme is "Grow," which draws inspiration from several ongoing City capital improvement projects, including the renovation of the former Chamber of Commerce building at 501 S Front St into a Cultural Trailhead and Center, The Shoreline Cultural Trail, and the Peg Hirvonen Band Shell. Each of these projects are funded through grants and foundation funds.  The success of Art Week is made possible through collaboration with over 200 local artists, businesses, organizations, and community partners, and it receives generous support from the Michigan Arts and Culture Council.

Art Week projects and events will be held at various locations across the city, activating different neighborhoods and community spaces. Art Week features a range of highlighted events including an opening sunrise ceremony, the annual children's plein air painting at Lighthouse Park, an opening concert by Hiawatha Music Co-op at the Marquette Commons, the Marquette Downtown Development Authority’s Wednesday Market on Washington St., and many more. Please visit  www.mqtcompass.com for a full list of events. Additionally, the week will offer numerous popup artist demos, workshops, music performances, installations, and exhibits.
