Wayne Bartz’s presentation on southeast Minnesota’s trout streams and rivers has been rescheduled for July 10. Wayne writes for Midwest Fly Fishing
magazine. He has fly fished “his” corner of the Driftless for three
decades, tied flies professionally, guided and recently has become known
for his excellent stream photography. Wayne was weather-bound
June 5, the night his presentation was to have been held.
Gallery Artists:
John Koch, Ardell Nelson, Bryan Young, Jack Haines, Derek de
Young. In addition to the woodcuts, oils, pastels and watercolors
on display, we’re introducing Jon Fibeger’s ceramic trout.
Attractive and affordable, Jon’s trout are carved from a block of clay,
then bisque fired, glazed and fired again. Each trout is numbered and a
great gift for the angler in your life, including yourself.
Larry Gavin’s new collection of poems Least Resistance, and an earlier work Necessities can be purchased at www.reddragonflypress.org.
Our hope
is that the Vermilion Sporting Arts Gallery will be a dynamic presence
in your life. We’ll send notices to our gallery mailing list and update
this website regularly to communicate our programs and special events.
Our mission
is to bring the work of innovative and accomplished artists to our
gallery for public viewing. Painters, sculptors, printmakers,
photographers — all will be welcome, and you’re welcome to come by to
see and in most cases buy their work.
We also will
hope to capture your interest along the way with programs having to do
with protecting (or, our failure to protect) what is left of our wild
lands and waters.
The Gallery will be open by appointment (call me anytime at 952.920.9028).
