Lake Effect Art Gallery Receives MEDC Grant!

Lake Effect Art Gallery was approved for a Michigan Economic Development Corporation (MEDC) Local Small Business matching funds grant program. The Gallery launched a crowd funding campaign at Patronicity.com/LakeEffect to raise money for this grant. The goal was $3000 (the amount of the grant match). THANKS to all of YOU who donated we not only met the goal it was exceeded!!  This will go a long way toward getting us through this rough patch.

The Gallery was able to open its door July 1 in its wonderful new location and is now up and running, to the delight of customers, visitors, artists and volunteers who keep it going. Come and visit us!
