Kalkaska artist never quits learning
KALKASKA – Kalkaska County landscape painter Rick Matley began his art career as a teen in tiny River Valley High School in Three Oaks, Michigan near the Indiana border. “I think it was around 1982 in my sophomore year and the teacher gave us some panels and oil paints and turned on Bob Ross,” says Matley with a laugh. “This guy is most likely one of the most famous artists, not because of his work so much, but because of the impact he had on artists. Every painter has their own style. Bob’s style is fun and a great way to learn how to paint.”

Terrapin Flyer makes a Real Celebration of the Days Between
The ‘Days Between’ mark the nine days that separate Jerry Garcia’s birthday, August 1, and his death date, August 9. Doug Hagman, frontman for Terrapin Flyer, felt compelled earlier this year to do something to commemorate this special time. "I was in Italy, and I just had to play to celebrate," Hagman told me. "So I called up Martyrs and asked, 'What dates do you have open?'" And so, this year's celebration began to take shape. Split between Martyrs in Chicago and Shoreline Brewery in Michigan City, IN, the ‘Days Between’ celebration became an unforgettable tribute to life, music, and the enduring spirit of Jerry Garcia. I was fortunate enough to attend the final night of the event at Shoreline Brewery.
