Foundry calls itself the Home for Creators in Port Huron. With a mix of art experiences, pottery workshops, and live performances, the building at 1219 Military Street is becoming just that.
One of Foundry’s regular live performances is the Writer’s Round, a monthly music event that features three musicians performing their own unique songs. The artists take turns telling the story behind their song and then performing it for the audience. Concerts usually last around an hour and a half, and the cost is $25 per person.
Writer’s Rounds take place in Foundry’s Listening Room which has a warm aesthetic featuring multi-colored pallet wood walls and eclectic furniture. The room seats about 50 people.
Caleb Malooley, chief songwriter and lead vocalist for The Gasoline Gypsies, organizes the Writer’s Rounds and chooses the artists who participate.
Malooley said, “It’s a cool experience. It’s a whole different thing than pretty much any other show I’ve ever been part of.”
