Book Event with Mary Blocksma & Her Dog

Calling all dog lovers, would-be and could-be dog adopters, and supporters of Michigan artists!

      

Please come help writer/artist, Mary Blocksma and Gracie celebrate their new memoir that describes their awkward early adventures and relationship. Both of them, largely untrained, had a lot to learn, but they found ways to adjust to each other. 

The book is dedicated to all persons who help abandoned animals and, in particular, to Shawna Guiett of Amazing Grace Animal Rescue, (also on FaceBook) where Gracie and Mary found each other.


Drop by any time between 2:00 and 7:00 p.m. 
(maybe even later)
THIS FRIDAY, September 11, 2015,
(across from Intermission Deli)

Please come meet Gracie, check out thr book.


View the original art Mary did for the book and more.   

You can even gift your pride and joy (or someone else's) with a handmade dog coat (Mary loves to make dog coats, but please don't bring your dog--just his or her measurements!) 

If you live too far to party in Bay City, you can find the book or order a custom-fit coat on Mary Blocksma's Beaver Island Arts Etsy page.


I have been a fan of Mary Blocksma for years.  I've been lucky to visit her studio, hold inspirational conversations and even party with her! 

Many of her watercolors of Lake Michigan and Michigan wild life grace my walls. She is a wonderful writer, a talented artist and a beautiful person.
