MQTCompass.org

Marquette, MI - The Marquette Public Art Commission is inviting public input for a new sculptural work as part of the Cultural Trail Project. Anishinaabe contemporary stone sculptor Jason Quigno will design, create and install the work at the new pier in downtown Marquette. The community is invited to review his proposal, entitled “Seven Grandfather Teachings,” and submit feedback online.

Online public comment will be closed Friday, September 8th at 5pm. Residents can also attend the MPAC monthly meeting on Wednesday, September 13th, to offer comments on the proposal. To view the project, visit <mqtcompass.com>
