In collaboration with the Susan Lane Foundation and the Besser Museum for Northeast Michigan, the Alpena County Library invites you to enjoy a poetry walk on the lawn of the Besser Museum. The walk will feature a variety of poems by Michigan poets as well as classical favorites. Joe and Patricia Garant fabricated the signs for the walk. The walk will be available for the public to enjoy now through Sept. 7.

Besser Museum is located at 491 Johnson St. in Alpena. Call the museum at 989-356-2202 or visit www.bessermuseum.org. For more information, visit the library’s website at www.alpenalibrary.org or their Facebook page.
