Saugatuck - Douglas, Michigan is well-known as "Michigan's Art Coast." My recent article for the Michigan Municipal League's magazine, The Review, explores the history of the area as a destination for artists, and highlights its growth as a top midwestern tourist destination. It also touches upon how a strong art scene contributes to Saugatuck - Douglas's identity and popularity as a tourist spot.

My exploration of Ferndale for the Michigan Municipal League's The Review magazine is available online. Read about how art, culture, and entrepreneurship contribute to the city's character. We all have an intuitive sense of what makes a downtown hip and attractive, but have you ever tried to put it into words? Consider this my attempt at describing why many people like Ferndale, Michigan.
