Local Art Seen: Goin' Postal and the North End Days Kickoff

The caliber of the work on display in the local arts venues here in the Twin Ports region is exceptional. And now, the Cloquet/Carlton community is even getting into the act. Friday evening there were numerous openings on both sides of the bridge. Here's a bit of what I saw in Souptown in the event you didn't make it.

Venues included VIP Vintage Pizza, Framing by Stengl, Art on the Planet, Thirsty Pagan, Empire Coffee and Goin' Postal. Painters, sculptors, craft makers and photographers all contributed to make this a rewarding evening. But it was only the beginning. The events all day Saturday--from the parade to the Costumed Spooktacular 5K to the Pub Crawl--may have been under-reported in the media, but were overly sensational for those who took part. Congrats to Superior for another successful North End Days.
