What happened
Real 501c3 art school + artists' residency in Saugatuck, MI, affiliated with SAIC; live site with 2026 summer courses. Has a dedicated open-air Padnos Metals Studio that hosts jewelry making, metalsmithing, and blacksmithing; instruction is via rotating short intensive workshops (visiting-artist instructors), not a standing metals faculty, so roster is session-based (e.g. Natalie Murray's 2026 metals-studio course).
Added in the 2026 program review; not in the original 2014 directory.
