Ferndale
Tucked in Ferndale Michigan sits the Lawrence Street Gallery, an artist-run cooperative that has been a cornerstone of the local art scene since its inception in 1987. This gallery provides a unique platform for artists to showcase their work, foster collaboration, and engage with the community. Unlike commercial galleries where the owner has the final say, Lawrence Street Gallery is governed and operated by its member artists, fostering a democratic and collaborative environment. This participatory structure enables artists to exert considerable influence over the gallery's trajectory, from the selection of exhibiting artists to the establishment of a unique artistic identity.
The gallery's establishment emerged from a collective desire among local artists for greater autonomy and control over their artistic careers. By pooling their resources and talents, these artists established a space where they could exhibit their work without the constraints imposed by commercial galleries. The cooperative model allows artists to share the responsibilities and rewards of running a gallery. Lawrence Street Gallery offers a wide range of artistic expression, from painting and sculpture to photography and mixed media. A must stop if in Ferndale.

Imagine stepping into a haven where nature takes the lead. The air hums with the gentle chorus of insects and the rustle of leaves, a stark contrast to urban clamor. A winding path, perhaps made of crushed gravel or soft earth, invites you deeper into the natural tapestry.
Here, in their undisturbed home, you might spot turtles basking lazily on sun-warmed logs in a serene pond, their ancient eyes observing the world with calm patience. Overhead, the sky is punctuated by the graceful flight of geese, their calls echoing as they move in unison, perhaps landing on the water's surface with a gentle splash.
Further along, the tall grasses and reedy banks might reveal the elegant forms of wading birds. A magnificent crane could be seen, its long legs meticulously picking through the shallows, while a solitary heron stands motionless, a statue of patience, waiting for the perfect moment to strike.
Near the sun-dappled rocks or amidst the low-lying undergrowth, a quick flash of movement might betray the presence of a lizard, its scales shimmering as it darts away, blending seamlessly with its surroundings. This is a place where every rustle, every shadow, and every sound suggest the hidden life of creatures thriving in their natural, protected environment. It's a truly immersive experience, offering a glimpse into the untamed beauty of the animal kingdom.

St. Patrick's Day Parade in Detroit, Michigan
St. Patrick's Day, a celebration of Irish heritage and culture, is a beloved annual tradition in Detroit since 1958. Each year, the city's vibrant Irish community comes together to host a grand parade that showcases the rich and storied history of the Emerald Isle, captivating both locals and visitors alike. The St. Patrick's Day Parade in Detroit, is a testament to the city's enduring spirit and its deep connection to its Irish roots, drawing thousands of revelers who flock to the streets to revel in the festive atmosphere, wearing their finest green attire, and immerse themselves in the rich tapestry of Irish music, dance, and cultural traditions.
The origins of the St. Patrick's Day Parade in Detroit can be traced back to the city's burgeoning Irish immigrant population in the 19th century, who sought to preserve their cultural identity and celebrate their heritage in the face of societal challenges and discrimination. As the Irish community in Detroit grew, so too did the parade, becoming a focal point for the expression of Irish pride and a means of asserting their place within the broader social fabric of the city.
Over the years, the parade has evolved, reflecting the changing demographics and sociopolitical landscape of Detroit, yet it has remained a steadfast beacon of Irish culture and community. Today, the parade continues to be a beloved tradition, drawing participants and spectators from all walks of life who come together to honor the enduring spirit of the Irish people and the vibrant diversity that has come to define the city of Detroit. It was a great day in Detroit, while we all turn a bit Irish on this day, fun was had by all.

Token Lounge in Westland. Reuniting: The Magic of a Great Night Out After Two Decades
The recent concert that brought together beloved bands from over two decades ago was a truly remarkable and deeply nostalgic event for attendees, harkening back to a time when their music captivated audiences and defined a generation. The air was electric with anticipation as fans, some of whom had grown up with these iconic musical acts, eagerly awaited the reunion, eager to relive the magic and energy that had inspired them in their youth. As the first chords rang out and the familiar melodies filled the venue, the crowd erupted in cheers and applause, the years melting away as they were transported back to the carefree days of their past. The performance was a masterful blend of the musicians' enduring talent and the emotional connection they had forged with their devoted fans over the course of their illustrious careers.
The allure of this reunion concert lay not only in the nostalgia it evoked but also in the sense of community and shared experience it fostered among the attendees. As young adults, the fans interpreted the event as a means of reconnecting with their youthful selves, a celebration of the formative musical experiences that had shaped their identities and left an indelible mark on their lives. However, their perspective was not entirely uncritical, as they also recognized the potential for naivety and a romanticized view of the past. The complexity of their response underscores the multifaceted nature of these reunions, which simultaneously satisfy a longing for the familiar while also prompting a re-evaluation of one's personal history and growth.
The success of this reunion concert also speaks to the evolving nature of the global music industry, where collaborations and cross-cultural exchanges have become increasingly common. As the live music sector continues to adapt to the rapidly changing landscape, events that bring together iconic acts from different eras and backgrounds can serve as a testament to the enduring appeal of live performance and the power of music to transcend boundaries. One of the most memorable night this year. OVERLOADED, FACE, BLASTERNAUT, and MIGHTY JONES

Michigan Artists Magazine's Show review
Howling Diablos
Bring the Heat to the
DIY in Ferndale
Ferndale's DIY was the place to be on August 21st, 2024, as veteran funkateers, the Howling Diablos, brought their infectious grooves and high-energy performance to a packed house. With over two decades of experience under their belts, the band proved that their musical fire still burns bright, igniting the crowd with a setlist that spanned their career.
The energy at DIY was palpable from the moment the Diablos hit the stage. The band's signature blend of funk, soul, and rock, honed over years of relentless touring and performing, had the audience moving and grooving from the first beat. The "cool vibe" was undeniable, as a mixed crowd of longtime fans and curious newcomers came together to share in the infectious energy of the music.
Diablos treated the audience to a healthy dose of fan favorites. A band with such a deep well of experience surely knows how to work the crowd, their performance at The DIY was no exception.
The Howling Diablos deliver a tight, dynamic performance, showcasing their instrumental prowess. There were moments of extended improvisation that allowed the band members to flex their musical muscles. The drums soar, adding another layer of soulfulness to the already rich sonic tapestry. Above and beyond a great experience of a live show.
