Farmers, home-scale growers, students, food producers and eaters will gather at the Northern Michigan Small Farm Conference—that is, over the internet. The pandemic has driven another year’s conference to the web, but this year the conference is more than twice the size. What hasn’t changed: a chance to network, share ideas and gain new skills that will make small farms in Michigan more economically viable and environmentally sustainable.

Crosshatch Center for Art and Ecology has been awarded a grant of $22,500 from the State of Michigan Council for Arts and Cultural Affairs (MCACA). The grant proposal was awarded through the MCACA peer review process and was one of 594 applications to compete for MCACA fiscal year 2022 funding.

Something really beautiful happened last night at the Impact 100 event, when hundreds of our community leaders and devoted philanthropists decided in favor of something small.

Commongrounds and Crosshatch are proud to be one of five finalists for the Impact 100 grant. Together, we are making an impact in our community by bringing an intimate performance space to 8th Street in Traverse City.

If you’ve ever wanted to work as part of the Crosshatch Team, this might be your chance. We are seeking to fill two new positions: Communications Director and Development & Special Projects Director.
