Midwest Artist Initiative The Midwest Artist Initiative (or MAI) is an artist collective based in Highwood, IL. It is 87 membe It is 87 members strong and growing.

Founded by Joel Morgan, Kevin and Tim Loesch... The Midwest Artist Initiative (or MAI) is an artist collective based in Highwood, IL. We have multiple showings annually. 4 in 2015 alone, with 5 or more planned for 2015. We prefer to work with or for charities. We're going to be creating the art anyway, might as well try and do some good with it!! The trick to our shows is.... that they're all them

ed!! The theme might be that we all create Pumpkins or Nutcrackers.... other shows might be tributes to wrestling or President Lincoln. But all shows are different!! So stay tuned, and don't miss an opening!!

Nutcrackers are in. Do you want to be a part of the show this year? You don't have to be an artist to participate. In fact, more often than not, its the non- professional artists that create the coolest stuff I think. Message me and we'll figure out how many you need and how to get them to you. The show is Saturday December 8th, so we have plenty of time to get them done! Let me know!
