Our History
In 1983, a group of people interested in promoting arts and crafts in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan purchased a 100-year-old building to serve as a meeting center and to display artwork created by those living in and around the village of Garden. In 1985, Village Artisans of Garden opened the Garden Gallery to display the work of local artists for purchase:
baskets
blown and stained glass
candles
fabric creations
jewelry
metal work
paintings
photography
pottery
weaving
wood objects and carvings
In 1991, the original building was demolished and an exact replica was constructed in its place and The Village Artisans was created exclusively for charitable and educational purposes.
