The best part of owning a camp is that we get to give it away to causes & creatives. This years artist in residence program is taking a different shape. Weve partnered with @THEJAUNT to invite 4 local artists here for a week to make art… 25% of all the proceeds of the presales on thejaunt.net are donated to 4 local good causes:Social Works Chicago @socialworks_chi socialworks_chi. kellyLGBT Detroit @lgbtdetroit BakpakBrave Space Alliance @bravespacealliance.
