Very cool! I want to see this - we live in northern WI now, but our daughter just started at NMU, we have an old family cabin in Gwinn, and my husband's family is from MarquetteGladstone.Escanaba areas - so relatable and very interesting!

It’s here until at least January 4th. They’re having another event that night, before it leaves. With fire performances.

I don’t even know how they found it. It’s definitely not something Marquette has ever had before!

Thank you for your response. I think you said many things that needed to be said. It's great to see Marquette continuing to spread its wings into the art world and especially to public art for all to view and be inspired by. It also should and will bring discussion. The person you refer to is sure to keep making her view known, but also I sense has lost some respect for her efforts in other issues. I am looking forward to the new community and arts building at Marquette's southern entrance, I am in that area almost daily.

It’s unfortunate how many people see art as a frivolous activity. It has the power to change society. If you are inclined, you are always welcome to share this and other posts to your social media.
