A Caregiver’s Butterfly Garden – Exhibit at the City of East Lansing's Hannah Community Center

Event Description

Experience A Caregiver’s Butterfly Garden, a powerful art and storytelling exhibit created by MSU's IMPART Alliance and AgeAlive, in partnership with the City of East Lansing.

This vibrant installation honors Michigan’s Direct Care Workers (DCWs) — the professionals who provide essential daily support for older adults and people with disabilities. Each butterfly in the exhibit carries a handwritten message from a caregiver, folded into art that transforms individual reflections into a collective symbol of compassion, resilience, and advocacy.

Curated by East Lansing artist-in-residence Zahrah Resh, the exhibit combines creativity, community, and awareness to highlight the urgent need for a stronger direct care workforce across Michigan—one that receives fair wages, training, and recognition for their vital work.

Visitors are invited to explore the garden, learn about the project, and reflect on the importance of caregiving in our communities.

Join Historian Andrew Kercher and examine the historical past of our Great Lakes State! The SS Eastland was the greatest loss of life in a maritime disaster on the Great Lakes when she flipped onto her side in the Chicago river in 1915. If the Titanic is the story of hubris, the Eastland is a tale of unintended consequences.
