How great is it that this small town has a wonderful and vibrant art center? Extremely wonderful!…read more I was an arts and theatre kid so this is one of the places I spent a lot of time at. I was in plays here and I went to plays as well as exhibits. Every time I am in town I like to see the current exhibit as well. I stopped by this time to hang with my mom as she took an art class in the back. They told me the current exhibit was open so I could go check that out as well. It was an exhibit of art professors from NMU. I really loved the video piece (no picture of it) as well as the ceramic plates. There are many talented people in the yoop and for a rural area, it is rich in culture. Support the arts!

Excellent artistic venue with a variety of events...I have seen two performances since I have been…read morehere...both very well performed! Smaller, intimate place so there isn't a bad seat in the house. Exceptional volunteer team... i spent time with Wendy P. and Nancy B., they are personable, passionate and hard working. They look for and add the intimate touches like real cloth table clothes, candles, munchies and comfortable seating for events - a true breath of fresh air Don't miss the "art exhibits" too ...and remember, they are always thankful of your financial support! Thanks ALL for a lovely experience...see you again in July.

Karen was incredibly professional throughout the entire process. I'll admit that after my first…read moreroad test, when I didn't pass, I felt frustrated by how strict the evaluation was. Looking back now, I realize that her standards come from a genuine commitment to keeping everyone safe on the road. Today, after years of continuing to practice and refusing to give up, I decided to take my test with Karen again. She was patient, kind, and understanding. She even waited outside in the rain for nearly 20 minutes while I searched for my paperwork without making me feel rushed. During the test, she gave clear instructions well in advance, making it easier to focus on driving safely and confidently. After the test, she took the time to write down areas where I could continue improving, even though I passed. I truly appreciated that extra effort because it showed that her goal isn't just to pass or fail people--it's to help them become safer, more confident drivers. Honestly, if I had passed the first time, I probably wouldn't have the perspective I have today. The experience taught me that sometimes we're not ready yet, and that's okay. I believe everything happens in its own time. Karen is willing to make the difficult decisions, even knowing some people may leave disappointed, because she'd rather face that frustration than approve someone who isn't yet ready to drive safely. That takes integrity, and I have a great deal of respect for her because of it. Thank you, Karen, for your professionalism, your patience, and your dedication to making Michigan's roads safer.

Charlie was totally awesome for my son's recent driving test. He was so nervous! Charlie was very…read moreprofessional and gave my son a positive training/testing experience. Charlie holds a high standard, but has a sense of humor to lighten the test experience. She if straightforward and fair. I learned a few things too! I would highly recommend Charlie for anyone's driver training or testing needs. Thank you Charlie! Molly and Vin : )
