January Events at Hessel School House

As we close the chapter on 2024, we’re looking forward to a new year full of creative expression, educational opportunities, and vibrant community connections—made possible by supporters like you. This year, Hessel School House - Avery Arts & Nature Learning Center has: • Inspired over 5,000 community members through art classes, lectures, workshops, and community events. • Offered art and nature programs to over 400 youth in our community. • Provided a venue for the local farmer's market and other nonprofit organizations to hold their events and meetings. • Supported local artists and authors by providing a platform to showcase their work. • Boosted the local economy by hosting the annual Aldo Leopold Festival and the new Snowy Owl Festival. Your year end donation ensures that these vital programs continue to thrive into 2025. Why Your Gift Matters Now: • $50 could supply materials for a child’s art class. • $100 could help fund scholarships for our annual writers symposium. • $250+ could support special presentations allowing us to offer them at reduced or no cost to the public. Every gift makes a difference. Your support keeps creativity and an appreciation for nature alive in the Les Cheneaux and surrounding area and brings beauty, inspiration, and opportunity to all who walk through our doors. Thank you for standing with us and believing in the power of continued education. Together, let’s make 2025 our most inspiring year yet. With gratitude and warm wishes for a bright New Year, The Board and Staff, Hessel School House - Avery Arts & Nature Learning Center
