Stories Told in Northern Michigan

March 1, 2025

It’s always a good sign when several powerhouse arts organizations team up, and this spring, Crooked Tree Arts Center, Great Lakes Center for the Arts, Harbor Springs Festival of the Book, and Petoskey District Library are bringing “Stories Told: A Community Project Empowering Students to Discover Their Voices” to middle school students and their families. Kids will dive into books from decorated authors like Jason Reynolds, Jasmine Warga, Lily LaMotte, and Ann Xu, and then use their creative voices to break down the books’ big themes. We’re talking onstage events, poetry, music, visual storytelling, and more. There will be workshops with local authors and illustrators, plus other events running March 13-May 10. See more at greatlakescfa.org/educational-programs/stories-told, and shop the books for 20 percent off at McLean & Eakin and Between the Covers!
