Step into a living tribute at the Saugatuck Center for the Arts, where thousands of hand-crafted butterflies take flight in celebration of Michigan’s Direct Care Workers. Created by caregivers, students, and community members from across the state, this immersive art installation blends color, texture, and heartfelt stories to honor the people who care for our most vulnerable. Don’t miss the opportunity to walk through this evolving garden of gratitude, reflection, and transformation.

This fall, experience the garden take root in East Lansing through a special collaboration with MSU AgeAlive at the Hannah Community Center. This vibrant exhibit continues the mission of A Caregiver’s Butterfly Garden—uplifting Direct Care Workers through community art, storytelling, and intergenerational engagement. Visit the exhibit, meet the makers, and discover how the beauty of a single butterfly can inspire statewide action to elevate and support the caregiving workforce.
This project has been made possible through a grant awarded to IMPART Alliance by the Michigan Department of Health and Human Services.
