The Grand Marais Art Colony serves as a catalyst for the arts in the Great Lakes Region, supporting artists through residencies, intensive and mentoring classes, as well as signature events. We all need a starting point, whether launching a canoe into the Boundary Waters or picking up a paint brush for the first time. Our Entry Points program provides opportunities for people of various ages and skill levels to attend artist talks, demonstrations, and mini-classes. Our classes provide immersive mentoring experiences for beginners to established artists. Classes primarily run from May to September in two-dimensional arts, printmaking, ceramics, sculpture, and literary arts. We provide artists with independent work space and time to develop new works by allowing for aesthetic inquiry and experimentation while hosting a variety of community engagement activities with residents. The primary residency season is October - April.The Grand Marais Art Colony serves as a catalyst for the arts in the Great Lakes Region, supporting artists through residencies, intensive and mentoring classes, as well as signature events.
