Michigan Ave

From 2010 - 2012, Michigan Ave. Creative Arts Journal was an annual publication that was a celebration of the arts created by the students, faculty, staff, and alumni at Henry Ford Community College. The brainchild of Creative Writing instructor, Ruth Ann Schmitt, it was a continuation of the work of Goodwheels, the previous creative writing journal, which was founded and edited by James Wanless. Michigan Ave. Creative Arts Journal included submissions of poetry, non-fiction, fiction, drama, sculpture, painting, drawing, graphic arts, and photography. Michigan Ave. Creative Arts Journal was committed to creating a diverse forum where Henry Ford Community College students, alumni, faculty, and staff could dialogue with each other through the arts. The creative voices found in Michigan Ave. Creative Arts Journal were distributed to the Dearborn community and beyond.

Issues of the Michigan Ave. Creative Arts Journal are available in the Henry Ford College Eshleman Library, room 110.
