Walnut Ink First Friday Event and Music/Documentary Screening Extraordinaire on June 12th!

We are super excited to be joining Walnut Ink Projects for a film screening event next Friday, June 12th! Walnut Ink Projects is an innovative and creative gallery and working space in the downtown arts district of Michigan City, Indiana. It's one of our favorite local galleries to venture into from time to time and we are ecstatic to collaborate on an event with them.

We were able to promote the upcoming event by putting Makeba on display outside the gallery for Michigan City's First Fridays event last night.

Many people stopped by to check out our unique craft and talk to us about next week's music and film event.

We are happy to say that Naomi Marie will be coming down to play music next Friday before the film is shown. Musician Naomi Marie, who we met on our Lake Michigan trip when we stopped in Racine, Wisconsin, allowed us to use her songs as the backdrop for our documentary. Her vibe and words meshed perfectly with our footage, plus we love that we met her on our actual adventure!

A little bit about our lovely musician for the documentary and for this special evening:

Fueled by honest wonder and countless cups of coffee, singer/songwriter Naomi Marie writes of love, loss and life’s oscillating adventures. Performing thoughtful, acoustic-folk-pop songs in cafes, intimate theaters and local venues, she is an active musical contributor all along the 3^rd Coast of Lake Michigan.
