The more you use, the more you have. - Maya Angelou We couldn’t bring ourselves to publish our usual letter of greetings and salutations. Too much has passed since the start of 2020 and our frame of reference has changed. We now speak of time as pre-COVID and post-COVID. We, like the rest of the world, watched everything and everyone come to a screeching halt once COVID-19 hit in early March. Washtenaw’s arts + creative sector, among the first to respond responsibly and flatten the curve in the greater Ann Arbor area shuttered the doors of performance venues, galleries and museums and put artists and creative workers out of work without warning. There is no safety net for the arts + creative sector: no government, foundation or commission relief. The impact of this pandemic and the lack of sector specific support is devastaing and the damage may be irreparable. The Arts Alliance knew its role: focus on the health and survival of the arts + creative industries in our community. We went into overdrive. Knowing cash was crucial for, we immediately to seek Creative Washtenaw Aid to aid those in need and started Creative Washtenaw Marketplace as an online sales site to sell goods. We responded to panicked calls for help on everything from unemployment to where to go for food. We collected every bit of information to distribute through our e-news, social media and COVID-19 resource web page. Keeping local creatives connected provided a lifeline so Creative Washtenaw Happy Hours morphed into Zoom gatherings.

  • College High Jinks
    TIMELINE #17 COLLEGE HIGH JINKS FUN IN THE ARB During my first school year (1953 - 1954), a group of 8 or 10 Lloyd House residents decided to let off some college steam. One evening, we underage students managed to purchase a small keg of beer and adjourned to "The Arb." The entrance to Nichols Arboretum is located near the major girls dormitories and presents wide open areas that are accessible at all hours. It was a favorite place for students to go to "make out" in an era of no student cars and dormitory living. Our Lloyd House group spent several hours in "The Arb" drinking beer (except for Bill Parks and myself, who drank soft drinks) and ate snack foods. We had fun, laughed and played games. One such game involved a small, downed tree which one of us grasped firmly at each end, ran down the hill, and used it to "mow down" our companions. As we left, there was a police car aiming right at "The Arb" entrance. When the policeman saw our obvious group of rowdies, he turned on his headlights, directly into our faces. We scattered and ran in all directions. All but one of us, Dan Weinstein, returned safely to Lloyd House. Dan told us later that he was running in the dark through the married student housing and didn't see the clothesline that he was bearing down on. The clothesline rope was exactly at mouth level. Dan ran into it so hard that he flipped upside down and may have pulled one of the rotted wooden poles out of the ground.
