The City of Marquette announces the postponement of the installation of the 'Seven Grandfathers Teachings' sculpture by indigenous artist Jason Quigno. Due to logistical timing of transportation and Quigno's request for more time to work with the stones, the installation has been rescheduled for later this summer.
Despite the deferment of the sculpture, the Marquette community will still be introduced to the Seven Grandfathers Teachings through several engaging events on Friday, June 28th:
The 'Seven Grandfathers Teachings' sculpture will be the City’s first major Indigenous public art installation and will serve as the centerpiece of the new City Shoreline Cultural Trail. This Trail, honoring our community's diverse cultural heritage, will connect key sites along the City’s shoreline.

Each of these projects are funded through grants and foundation funds. The success of Art Week is made possible through collaboration with over 200 local artists, businesses, organizations, and community partners, and it receives generous support from the Michigan Arts and Culture Council.
Art Week projects and events will be held at various locations across the city, activating different neighborhoods and community spaces.
