Calumet Art Center

Another great story of re-purposing in the Upper Peninsula, and specifically Calumet, is that of the First Presbyterian Church, which opened in 1894. As the population of Calumet has dropped substantially after the copper boom, the congregations of many of the beautiful churches could no longer financially maintain their buildings. Some congregations consolidated; some largely disappeared. Not all of the old churches have been re-purposed, yet, but this beautiful old church now provides a home for the Calumet Art Center, which provides a learning environment for art, culture, and history for the people of the Keweenaw.
