Public Art inventory and guide

Archive
In 2023, local artist Maryjo Lemanski conducted a survey of the public art in Saugatuck, Douglas and Fennville. Each inventory document includes a photo and blurb about the artist and interpretation questions. The information gathered was used to create the Saugatuck-Douglas Conventions and Visitors Bureau-produced 2025 "Arts Guide & Map - Saugatuck, Douglas, Fennville." The information may be included in QR codes for display near each sculpture.
