Animal Life, Art from the Kalevala
CCCAC Kerredge Gallery: January 28-February 28, 2023
Reception: Saturday, January 28 from 2-4pm


The Kalevala is a 19th century work of poetry compiled by Elias Lönnrot from Finnish and Karelian oral folklore and mythology. It is regarded as the national epic poem of Finland and is one of the significant works of Finnish literature.  Our annual open call exhibition asks artists to create artwork relating to the many animals that are part of the Finnish epic poem, as imagery and symbolism. More information...

 At the Copper Country Community Arts Center we work to provide arts opportunities and cultural enrichment to our community.  Located in Michigan's Upper Peninsula, the CCCAC accomplishes this by offering art classes & programs for people of all ages year round, hosting community and cultural events, providing gallery space for artists to sell their work, running a working letterpress studio, clay studio, and black & white photography darkroom, helping emerging artists with professional development, managing a strong volunteer program, assisting students launch art careers via internships, and providing exhibition opportunities.

Visit our three galleries: the Kerredge Gallery, where we host monthly professional artist exhibitions as well as community exhibits; our Youth Gallery, featuring artwork by local schools and young individual artists, and our Artists Market Sales Gallery, which represents more than 170 local and regional artists.
