Musician May Erlewine will be one of the featured performers at the upcoming Public Radio 90 benefit concert at Strega Nonna in Negaunee, bringing with her an approach to songwriting and performance that centers on connection, presence, and service.

Ice Conditions Report New Years Edition!
Much like the rest of the Midwest, the Upper Peninsula was just hammered with a holiday ‘Cyclone Bomb” which dumped nearly 24 inches of snow in the Munising area.
