About
Lanesboro Arts is proud to present the 30th Gallery Anniversary Reception, happening on Saturday, July 15th from 5:00 – 7:00 pm at the Lanesboro Arts Gallery. This event, celebrating the 30th Anniversary Group Exhibition “Yesterday. Today. Tomorrow.” will feature special guests, historical storytelling, heavy hors d’oeuvres, and live music!
This year marks 30 years for the
Lanesboro art gallery — now a part of Lanesboro Arts. Over the last
three decades, hundreds of artists have shown their work in solo and
group shows in the Exhibition Gallery or sold their work in the Sales
Gallery.
To honor and celebrate that legacy –
and all of the artists, community members, and patrons who’ve
contributed to it – we’ve assembled a juried group show featuring the
work of more than 30 artists. This special Gallery Anniversary Reception
will include storytelling from artists, staff, and community members
who have been a part of the Gallery’s rich history; a special poetry
reading from Whalan poet and artist Diane Knight; and live music as
well.
The group show will run from June 17 –
August 13. Other related events include a special anniversary after
hours celebration from 7:00 – 9:00 pm on Saturday, July 15th on the back
patio of High Court Pub. and the Canvas Clash, a fast-paced, live
painting showdown between six artists that will take place on Thursday,
July 13th from 6:30 – 8:30 pm at Sylvan Brewing. Find more information
about these events Here.
The exhibit is made possible by
the voters of Minnesota through a Minnesota State Arts Board Operating
Support grant, thanks to a legislative appropriation from the arts and
cultural heritage fund.
