Sculpture crawl and mural meandering

26 Jun 2017

There’s art everywhere in Red Wing, not just in private collections and galleries. The Red Wing Arts Association is making it easy for visitors to see the wide range of visual arts available.

The Arts Association has maps to the Red Wing Sculpture Crawl, uncovering art in parks, on the street, in cemeteries, and at the sculpture gardens at the Depot Gallery and Anderson Center. For history lovers, the city’s mural has been repaired and repainted. It offers a quick refresher on the vibrant saga of the town.

The Red Wing Arts Association is a hub for all things art in the area. These include gallery showings, like Bridges Crossing the Mississippi, the Fall Arts Festival, local exhibitions, concerts, a garden tour and the Pumpkins in the Depot tradition at Halloween.
