Vasaloppet Art Show Results





VASALOPPET ART SHOW RESULTS

Hi everyone!   This has been quite an experience, learning to blog.  Never done it before and  have learned lots along the way.  This is my 3rd attempt so hopefully it will work.  Dee

The Vasaloppet Art Show was visited by approximately 450 visitors this past weekend.  That is a record!!!  Highlights included a gallery tour by Ann Klefstad of Duluth on Friday evening and a caricature drawing demonstration on Saturday by Erica Belkholm.  David Waid, a local jeweler, demonstrated stone polishing on Sunday.

Visitors voted on their favorite works of art in several categories.
