The MiAA Copper Country affiliate services the northwest region of Michigan’s Upper Peninsula. The committee works with the home office to write grants to support artist-in-residence programs for special education students in schools, and to train artists to work in these programs.

The committee also includes representation from Directions Unlimited, a service provider in Hancock. Directions Unlimited hosts an arts program for adults with disabilities, similar to MiAA’s Club Create.

Our affiliates are always looking for:

• Volunteers
• People with talent in all art forms
• Passionate people to serve on the affiliate committee
• Individual donors and corporate sponsors
