How To Get Here: (Students must arrange for their own transportation to/from Sievers.) Washington Island is located 7 miles north of the tip of the Door County Peninsula, about 90 miles northeast of Green Bay, WI (180 miles north of Milwaukee, 270 miles from Chicago and 320 miles from Minneapolis). To get to the Island you take a 30 min. car ferry trip from the Northport Pier, located at the northernmost end of Highway 42. When you register for class we will mail you a copy of the Washington Island car ferry schedule (www.wisferry.com).

Commercial air flights land at Austin Straubel Field,
Green Bay, WI. (We advise students traveling by air to double-check with us 6 to 8 weeks before class before booking their flight, in case enrollment is too low to warrant the class’s being held.)
