Art in the Yard's fourth year raises funds for Grand Haven Schools

– PHOTOS BY JEANNE VOLLMER

Every year for the last four, the folks at D. Baker & Sons Lumber Company in Grand Haven have invited in several hundred of their friends for an art-based fundraiser to benefit the community.

Though it is held in an unheated warehouse, people come in droves, with the $10 admission fee and other funds going to the Grand Haven School Foundation.

The event also featured delicious wood-fired pizza from Standard Pizza, and a cash bar. Dave Palmer and His Only Friends (that’s the name of the band) played their blend of classic rock and storytelling-based original music. Chemical Bank, Herman Miller Cares, and Bosgraaf Construction were additional sponsors

There is so much art that it’s difficult to take it all in. One of the thirty artists on display, Mary Lanka, is also a graphic designer and illustrator. See more about her at marylanka.com.
