Galerie Bohème: Art by Clyde Mikkola
On Friday evening, June 5, visit the Galerie Bohème, 423 5th Street, and check out Clyde Mikkola's outstanding images on canvas that will be festooning the walls of the small gallery on the north end of 5th street in Calumet -- two doors south of Artis books and three doors down from the Omphale Gallery and Restaurant, across the street from the yacht yard, and a couple of vacant lots uphill from the L and L bar to the place with the fish in the window. Disregard the fish, come inside for enlightenment and a plastic of Pinot Noir or punch and a cracker or two. Talk to Clyde and the Toms about the blank spot on your wall and in your collection.
"Be There or miss out on the fun and cheap wine," says Tom Rudd, Galerie Bohème host.

And always in store -- Peter and Shelly Hahn's very own hand-hammered copper jewelry and décor. They also feature beautiful vintage items.
Hahn Hammered Copper is at 203 Fifth Street in Calumet.
