This
fund was created by renowned Michigan artist and Island resident
Marlee Brown Musser. It supports all areas of the arts including
visual, musical, and performing arts and primary importance
will be given to programs aimed at young people.
"I am so pleased to establish this fund
with the hope that it will enrich the Mackinac Island community.
My art has been my life and has given me so much that I would
like to share that, especially with children. Art is a wonderful
way to boost children's self-confidence, a way for them to
produce something that others appreciate. By establishing
this fund through the Mackinac Island Community Foundation,
I can share something with the Island right now, plus, know
that the community will be enriched through the arts for generations
to come."
