Coast Guard Station Project

Groundbreaking ceremony June 25th! Renovations have begun!

The former U.S. Coast Guard Station located on Betsie Bay will be the new home for the Crystal Lake Art Center! The city of Frankfort has given us the opportunity to explore this new location. Imagine the possibilities with this new historic space in a beautiful location.

This new Center for the Arts will be a year-round educational and cultural resource for residents and a distinctive destination for tourists.

This convergence of Art, History and Promise will provide a terrific new experience for Frankfort, Benzie County and Northwest Michigan.

The new space will be a showcase of art education and exhibition.

You can make a donation towards the project through the Crystal Lake Art Center Building Campaign Fund managed by the Grand Traverse Regional Community Foundation (new window).
