When you’re riding your bike through the city you’ll see…
Some of the things I love most about riding my bike are right here…
Gary over at My Wheels Are Turning featured Thoughts On My Bike by filmmaker Andrea Dorfman today.
MyWhAT is one of my favorite blogs, blending hard core thinking about transportation decisions with broader musings about how we get from here to there.
ArtPrize is AmaZing
ArtPrize has returned to Grand Rapids for the second year. For my money, this is hands-down the most amazing event I’ve ever been to. I’m in GR right now, ready for a day of exploring this multi-venue art explosion. We’re featuring ArtPrize on Absolute Michigan once again too – here’s the montage video I made for ArtPrize 2009 – I’ll try to do one for 2010 too!
Michelle Shocked in Grand Rapids TONIGHT
One of my absolutely favorite musicians is Michelle Shocked and she’s in Grand Rapids tonight at 8 PM. If you can get there, don’t miss at the Wealthy Theatre. She’s looking for some progressive, community organizer types in Grand Rapids to help stimulate discussion about the plight of the American worker and will feature her 1992 album “Arkansas Traveler.”
Better come to Earthwork Harvest Gathering
John took this shot at the Waltz Hour in 2008 at the Earthwork Harvest Gathering. This is just one of the many cool features that the gathering boasts. Many more shots in Flickr’s Earthwork Harvest Gathering slideshow.
Harvest Gathering is quite simply my favorite festival of the year. It’s family friendly and held at the Earthwork Farm near Lake City, Michigan. With 3 days of good food, people and some of the best Michigan musicians you’ll see on 2 stages, Harvest Gathering is where I’ll be September 17-19th!
