Grand Forks ArtSee.
If you are in the area you should check out this great event!
I will be there along with other wonderful local and regional artists.
This will be the ninth annual ArtSee event.
Basically you get to enjoy great live music, delicious appetizers and beautiful art all for free.
I can’t think of a better way to spend my Friday night!
The event goes from 4:30 – 8 p.m. at the Empire Arts Center in Downtown, Grand Forks.
I will be doing an acrylic demonstration during the event.
I will also have original artwork, note cards, books and giclée reproductions for sale.
Stop by and have a great time.
See you there,
Ellen
