If you’ve ever wondered about the rich history of Michigan’s Upper Peninsula, then get ready for the Erickson Center for the Arts’ Heritage Cottage and Camp Weekend in Curtis, featuring guided tours, a film and much more.
Explore a charming small town during the most beautiful time of year in Northern Michigan during the Heritage Cottage and Camp Weekend in Curtis, Michigan.
Take a guided bus tour of historic Curtis area homes, businesses and resorts. Then enjoy live music, a vintage U.P. photography and memorabilia exhibit, movie night and a presentation at The Pine Performance Center, “The U.P. in 3-D” with Jack Deo.
Guided bus tours are taking place only on Saturday, September 17, and are limited, so tickets are required. If you’d prefer a self-guided tour, maps are available for a fun weekend adventure.
