Welcome to Cycling Salamander

The Cycling Salamander is a fine art gallery outside the city of Charlevoix, Michigan. Charlevoix is located on three lakes - Lake Michigan, Round Lake and Lake Charlevoix in the northern lower (peninsula) of Michigan. We feature works from over 40 selected Michigan artists. Come enjoy quality work in our casual Up-North setting and stroll our 3-acre sculpture walk among northern Michigan wildflowers and our annual cutting garden.

Kids' Art Class











More than a dozen kids from the Charlevoix Circle of Arts visited the Cycling Salamander today to be inspired by the show, "Out of the U.P.: Steel Sculpture by Gordon Gearhart" and by the sculptures by artists  Ritch Branstrom (Rapid River), Karin Kirulus (Chicago), Rick Kane, Karla and Bill Tye (Kalamazoo), Larry Halbert (Dundee), and Chester Morris (Charlevoix). After viewing the work the kids collected seeds, twigs, rocks and other material in order to create their found object sculptural pieces.  Here are a few of the camper's and their work.  Way to go campers!
