Water Weekend 2025 events this Friday, August 29 – Monday, September 1

Water Weekend is this weekend where artists, activists, and water protectors from across the Great Lakes watershed gather in Michigan to connect, protect, and celebrate our shared waters.

Title Track family will once again be participating in the Water is Life Festival this Saturday in Petoskey as Jenny Jones and Chris Good will be performing as part of Joe Reilly & The Community Gardeners’ musical set. We hope to see you there!

Shoutout to the @GreatLakesCreatives for the wonderful weekend schedule graphic and for hosting their annual Water Weekend camp as well as to all of the participating organizations for their advocacy and organizing efforts!
