Greetings to all from the beautiful Leelanau! Our land of delight, as our name is translated from the Odawa language. We welcome each beautiful season and keep busy in all of them. Whether in summer when we twelcome back our summer friends, or year 'round welcoming friends old and new to our own unique, happy place . The most fun is to be here and see and touch it all in the gallery, but we can share a shopping experience by providing you pictures of all the choices we have in the gallery. Just ask! We'd love to share!
150+ ARTISTS : ALL AMERICAN, MOSTLY MICHIGAN, LOTS OF LOCAL...
The Painted Bird is a gallery of contemporary American crafts in Suttons Bay, Michigan in the beautiful Leelanau County. The website is fun to explore. Browse by the type of crafts, or by the artists you may know or want to know. Looking for beach stone jewelry, silver earrings, or a scarf or a certain artist? Just type it in the search box...
The site shows the work of most of our artists. There is more in the store, not on the site so contact us for images of current work on hand. Since some artists' work is one of a kind, you should look at the images as examples of work. Talk to us and we can show you virtually all that is here to see, and talk about custom orders by an artist... a true shopping trip!
