Today was an incredible day to be outside and on the campus of Central Michigan University! We added a street mural to Central Avenue between the Library and Fabiano garden with the help of hundreds of students helping and painting. The University Engagement & Student Affairs group was amazing as a partner and we are to see other ways we can and !

The need is critical AND you can help. We are hosting a mobile drive on Tuesday, Aug 18 from 1:30-6p at Art Reach! Walk in donors welcome.

Michigan blood donors are needed. 🩸

Blood can reach some trauma patients before they arrive at the hospital, helping care begin sooner after a serious injury.

But that blood has to be there before the emergency happens.

Versiti had about 15,000 fewer donation appointments during June and July. As summer winds down and Labor Day approaches, eligible Michigan donors are encouraged to schedule in the coming days to help strengthen the blood supply for local patients.

Schedule at BloodCenter.com or call (866) 642-5663.

We are deeply saddened to learn that Pat Herron died on Aug. 3. Pat was a life-long supporter of poetry and creativity. When Pat’s husband, Russ, died, she established a fund at the Mt. Pleasant Area Community Foundation that has been the primary financial support of the Wellspring Literary Series. Pat was a regular attendee at the Wellspring events, and was always an advocate for poetry. Each year 4 poetry reading events are presented at Art Reach in partnership with the CMU English department and coordinated by Robert Fanning. Pat will be missed dearly by all who knew and loved her spirited character. Memorial contributions may be made to the Russ Herron fund at the MPACF — ensuring the continuation of the Wellspring event in perpetuity.
