Art Coast Archives

These four photographs capture a small part of a story that helped shape modern-day Saugatuck and Douglas.

The first image shows the Blue Tempo, a Douglas bar that became a gathering place for LGBTQ visitors beginning in the 1950s and is often cited among the earliest gay bars in West Michigan.

The second photograph features the Elms Hotel, which became known as a welcoming destination for LGBTQ travelers during a time when that was far from common.

The third image captures a summer day at Oval Beach in the 1980s, reflecting the growing popularity of the area as a vacation destination and gathering place.

The final photograph shows the Douglas Dunes now known as The Dunes Resort, Saugatuck MI
The Dunes remains one the most iconic LGBTQ resorts in the country.

Together, these places and people played a role in shaping the culture, character, and history of the Art Coast.

Long before Saugatuck became the Art Coast, it started here. 🎨
In the early 1900s, a group of artists from School of the Art Institute of Chicago made their way to the quiet banks of the Kalamazoo River, trading city life for open air, dune light, and the kind of stillness that invites creativity. What began as a summer experiment in 1910 would become Ox-Bow School of Art and Artists’ Residency, a place where artists could step away and truly immerse themselves in their work.
More than a century later, that spirit hasn’t changed.
Today, Ox-Bow continues to welcome artists from all over offering hands-on courses, workshops, and residencies in everything from painting and ceramics to glass and metals. It’s still a place to slow down, to create, and to reconnect with the process.
A piece of Saugatuck’s story that’s still being written, just as it was then.

Long weekends, lake breezes, and the unofficial start of summer on the Art Coast. 🇺🇸☀️

Memorial Day in Saugatuck means patio dinners, strolls through town, boat rides, beach sunsets, and slowing down long enough to enjoy it all.

Here’s to honoring those who served and welcoming another season by the water. ❤️
