Petoskey, Michigan Arts Center Awards Ceremony

The Crooked Tree Arts Center in Petoskey, Michigan is known for their outstanding students and programs.

On Wednesday evening, I was honored to photograph the awards ceremony at the Crooked Tree Arts Center and the cake and drinks reception to follow.

Petoskey, Michigan is a boutique town located about an hour north of Traverse City on Lake Michigan.  Petoskey has about 6000 year round people and explodes in the Summer months.  There is surprisingly a lot to do in Petoskey.  We have year round sports and lots of tourists that come to our area.

Every year they have a awards night to honor the accomplishments of all of their students.  They offer scholarship awards to a couple students.

The Crooked Tree Arts Center has a nice presentation.  They introduce and honor the accomplishments of their students.

The ballet program at Crooked Tree Arts Center is always impressive.  The students are constantly pushed to high standards.  It is interesting to hear all of the awards and Summer school acceptances.  Some of the students have danced for 15 or more years in the ballet program.

The Crooked Tree Arts Center has tons of activities and art throughout the year.  Look online to find the programs that work with your family.  Crooked Tree Art Center is a blessing for Northern Michigan artists.

This is the third year I have worked with Crooked Tree.  They are so nice and always appreciate of my time.
