Programs and Opportunities
There are lots of ways to enjoy what Wagbo has to offer. There are wooded trails to explore, a fiber arts classroom with looms for you to try your hand at weaving. There are oppportunities if you need a space to start a small land-based business, or begin farming or gardening. Conservation and permaculture practices also could use a volunteer or two. The list of possibilities is endless. We welcome you to fill out the form above to get in touch with our coordinator and discuss your ideas.
Full Moon Feasts
During Full Moon Feasts we acknowledge the passing of seasons, the foods that accompany them and the community that supports us. Bring a dish to pass and after we'll focus on a topic or fun activity and make an escape from your daily routine. New schedule coming soon.
Sunday Stitch & Such
Once a month on Sundays get your creativity juices flowing as we join with others to stitch, weave, mend, paint, knit, or whatever your "thing" is. We chat and share, snack and stitch and nourish our souls together. Wagbo will serve hot tea and coffee. We will plan to host from 11:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m. but you can come anytime and stay as late as you like. See 2025 schedule here.
Fiber Arts Classes Coming Soon!
Learn how to use natural materails to create beautiful garments, unique household textiles or creative decor using weaving techniques and other fiber arts skills. Classes coming soon!

A full Program Schedule brought back Full Moon Feasts and Stitch & Such Sundays
A new Fiber Arts & Culture classroom space was developed by renovating an old garage. But before the building could be fixed, stornmwater run-off was redirected and infiltrated with funding help from a Paddle Antrim Ripple Effect mini-grant. Repairs and renovations to the building were completed this fall due to generous grant funds from the Charlevoix County Community Foundation, the Great Lakes Energy People Fund, Antrim Womens Alliance, Tipp of the Mitt Fiber Fair and other anonymous donors.

Events were a hit with young folks and young at heart. As a result of program funding from the Charlevoix County Community Foundation, Wagbo offered a full schedule of programs twice per month including Stitch & Such creative circles and Full Moon Feast potlucks with a topic of interest. Many new people became friends of Wagbo. New and old visions for the future of Wagbo were conjured with the inspiration, positive energy and strength in community that bubbled up during these wonderful events.

A sculpture, “The Young Boy and the Stream”, created by the late Martha Sulfridge of Boyne City, brings to life a Hemingway not often seen–––the young boy, sturdy and resolute, who came of age here in our northern lower Michigan. Her sculpture is a masterpiece of movement and expression envisioning young Ernie battling an enormous fish and is on par with the renown works of Ernest Hemingway himself. This life size bronze was gifted to the community and will reside in a newly created garden at the Bay Township Hall in Horton Bay ofering a space for contemplation and education, now and long into the future.
