OUR COVER STORY

Art and artists are ubiquitous on the shores of Lake Superior. Fine art is displayed in private and public galleries, offered for sale, exhibited at festivals and competes with other lake attractions for the public’s attention. We feature the works of four fine artists from around our lake, including Cheri Ann Fulsher of Negaunee, Michigan, whose “Bill and Margie’s Excellent Adventure” appears on our cover.
