Miss the Art Fair?

The art lounge on the first floor of the Michigan Union can help!  It mixes the function of a gallery and study lounge to create an intriguing exhibit space with a comfortable atmosphere for studying. Students primarily create the exhibited artwork; however, works by other members of the University and greater community are occasionally featured. In addition to artwork, the lounge also houses a grand piano, open to the University community.  Come check it out during the Michigan Union's building hours.
