You don't have to be a fisherman to appreciate The Joy! Nothing says "Fishtown" quite like the iconic, treasured image of this hardworking fish tug. You see her everywhere! And in all sorts of media - mugs, tiles, photos, and paintings.
One of our favorite artists at Two Fish Gallery is Emily Frushour, a mid-Michigan artist specializing in vibrant and delicate watercolors. Her art embodies the spirit of beloved landmarks, regions, lakes, and more, integrating the organic nature of watercolor into crisp designs.
The Joy (a trap net tug) and her older sister, The Janice Sue (a gill net tug), are active Great Lakes Commercial fish tugs, owned and operated by the Fishtown Preservation Society.
