This Second-Saturday Gallery Stroll and Artist Gala features the work of Michael Maitner, Matthew Jacobson, Paul Vanheest, Jill Wagner, Kim Zahnow, and Laura Testé

These artists capture how there is something magical about the landscapes that surround us: our childhood rural vistas, Michigan sandy shores, horses led down dirt roads, and the casual ebb and flow of people in familiar places. There is also the abstract landscape of our own creation; the whimsical surreal of our dreams, curiosities, and imaginings.

Join us for an evening of art, Michigan terroir wines, artist demos, and nosh under the music of John Otto. 

Featured Michigan Wines:

Some of our favorite wines at J. Petter Galleries are homegrown! The Old World has its merits, but New World wines have been bringing the heat in the wine scene. Out of our own Michigan room in the wine gallery we bring to you a selection of Michigan grown grapes that reflect the splendor and rich taste of our surrounding environment. Check out our website to see our wine menu and what Michigan wines we have on the bar! We also have a selection of craft draft beers and ciders handcrafted locally.
