Welcome Back Reception at Beaumier Center
The Beaumier U.P. Heritage Center is hosting a “Welcome Back” reception in its gallery at Gries Hall on the campus of Northern Michigan University. The reception will have hors d’oeuvres and light refreshments available. This event is free and open to public. NMU requires unvaccinated individuals to wear masks when indoors of any university facility. Vaccinated individuals are welcome and encouraged to wear masks when indoors.
In addition to the reception, you’ll have a chance to check out the Beaumier Center’s current exhibition, “A Beautiful Location: the Architecture of NMU.” The exhibition looks at how Northern Michigan University went from a one building campus in a remote part of Marquette, to its expansion as a modern campus of the 1960s and the wired-community of today. It also features key information about the structures through photographs, architectural plans, a time-lapse map, and fragments and artifacts from buildings no longer standing.
