Chelsea Community Art Project

The Portrait Project
Connecting Local Artists, Educators and Aspiring Art Students
Renovation of the long-abandoned building, located at 110 Jackson Street "Mack Building", in downtown Chelsea is about to begin.
Mack Building LLC recently purchased the building from the City of Chelsea and plans to renovate the space over the next 18 months for mixed commercial residential use. Mack Building LLC worked with the Michigan Economic Development Corporation, DDA and City of Chelsea to secure a matching federal grant for the project. Mack Building LLC owner, Joe Ziolkowski, and his wife, Abby Hurst, want to do something creative and community oriented to kick off the construction project. The building is located adjacent to the Sylvan Building which houses the WISD Young Adult Learners, hence a partnership was born and a community art project envisioned.
A group of local artists and educators have collaborated to create a unique community project that merges art, diversity, and inclusivity. Inspired by the #WhyYouMatter Campaign at the Chelsea High School, the project is designed to celebrate the Chelsea Community in its many perspectives, experiences and abilities. The unique talents, attributes and contributions of students and young adults will be highlighted throughout the project.

THE BROTHERS GRIMM SPECTACULATHON
Written by Don Zolidis
Presented by the Chelsea High School Theatre Guild
Directed by Katherine Altman
The fairy tales of the Brothers Grimm are turned on their heads in this fast-paced, rollicking ride as two narrators and a dozen actors attempt to combine all 209 stories ranging from classics like Snow White, Cinderella,
and Hansel and Gretel to more bizarre, obscure stories like The Devil's Grandmother and The Girl Without Hands. A wild, free-form comedy with lots of audience participation and madcap fun.
Performance dates and times:
Thursday, May 11 at 7:00pm
Friday, May 12 at 7:00pm
Sunday, May 14 at 3:00pm
