William Shakespeare poignantly captured a sentiment that remains deeply resonating, particularly up here in Glen Arbor’s August: “Summer’s lease hath all too short a date.” While it is difficult to witness the inevitability of yet another summer season passing, there is an upside worth acknowledging—those proverbial “silver linings.” Suddenly, the self-checkout line at Anderson’s Market is no longer a desperate option; one can actually find a table for four at Funistrada on a Thursday evening; similarly, at the iconic Mill, getting a much-coveted reservation at the bar is now a reality; Inn & Trail Gourmet’s Julie Zapoli and Liz Erdmann are back at stocking their freezer with culinary delights like homemade Beef Bourguignon and Coq au Vin; and happily, tee times are freeing up at River Club. Although the summer season of weekly art openings at Lake Street Studios Center Gallery is rapidly coming to a close, there is hope on the horizon with a new program: a special exhibit that will keep the gallery open through September. Christine Deucher, gallery manager, conceived the idea with Center Gallery co-owner Allison Stupka’s input and blessing. The exhibit is titled “See You in September,” and the format is unique for Center Gallery. This exhibit is comprised of one opening—on Saturday, Aug. 31—and it will remain on display for the succeeding three weeks.
