Creators and Makers Trip

This two-day itinerary highlights all things creative and artistic in Berrien County. Explore these stops at local art galleries, performance venues and fun museums. But creativity isn’t just about the arts. Our local makers have added their own creative twists to their wineries, breweries and distilleries, too. Grab a bite to eat, sample some beverages along the way and let your right brain play in the creative Southwest Michigan. Make sure to bring along your Makers Trail Passport and Creative Connections brochure to collect stamps! If you don’t have one, you can ask for one as you visit these destinations.

Day 1: St. Joseph and Benton Harbor

From art galleries and glass blowing demonstrations to locally-sourced pours and eats, you'll end the day with a full stomach and inspired mind.

See You In The Morning

There are more colorful roads to travel after sunrise tomorrow.

Day 2: Buchanan, Berrien Springs and Three Oaks

Transport yourself back in time to an 1800s courthouse and Featherbone Corset Factory. See a show and explore the history of the area.
