Manage episode 446325327 series 3399593
We are happy to introduce artist Maggie Bandstra to our podcast audience. Maggie is a painter who delves deep into the connections we have with nature, healing and each other. She is committed to bringing artists together through her work at Ox-Bow and recently organized a fall artist retreat that Val attended a couple of weeks ago. Maggie is also the founder of Lakeshore Visual Arts Collective and she manages the Ox-Bow House in Douglas, Michigan. She obtained her MFA from Savannah College of Art and Design in 2021 and also has a Masters of Educational Leadership from Michigan State University.
During this interview Maggie shares details of her painting practice, her commitment to creating opportunities for artist exhibits, and the history of Ox-Bow that started as a seed of an idea at the turn of the 19th century.
