Artists from three southern Minnesota towns—Farmington, Northfield, and Faribault—showcase capriciously executed, regionally flavored media, including ceramics, paintings, glass work, jewelry, and more. Consider potter Colleen Riley’s vases, washed in Great-Lake blues and sloping patterns echoing cattail parallels. Or painter Mary Malone’s rosy post-impressionist hues working their way into a duck still-life. Or woodworker Reid Hendershot’s smoothed-down reuse of wood sourced from a community compost site and neighbors’ yards—transmogrified into lathe-turned bowls, end tables, and other functional things.
