Hessel School House - Avery Arts & Nature Learning Center

Nestled in the picturesque eastern Upper Peninsula of Michigan, the Hessel School House – Avery Arts & Nature Learning Center stands as a beacon of creativity and inspiration for artists of all mediums.

With a mission to cultivate a deep connection between art, nature, and community, the Hessel School House – Avery Arts & Nature Learning Center invites individuals to explore, create, and be inspired in this idyllic setting. Join us on a journey of artistic discovery and environmental appreciation as we celebrate the union of art and nature in this serene haven of inspiration.
