Woods and Water Visitor Retreat
MLH members have the opportunity for the first time to attend the 2025 workshops as a visitor. Come and join in the fun at the Ralph A. MacMullen Conference Center at Higgins Lake. Bring a small loom or fiber project and enjoy 1, 2, or 3 nights as non-workshop participants. Relax and meet up with old friends. Make new friends. Have lots of fiber fun while others are taking classes. Explore the area to hike, rent a kayak, head to the beach; or take to the road for a fiber or park tour along Lake Michigan or any of the inland lakes and artful villages. Attend all conference activities except classes. Weave a beach towel and jump in the towel parade. Bring your work to show in the informal exhibitions in lodges. Come to the MLH annual meeting Thursday night.
