Where's Art? If a tree falls in the forest and no one paints it, who will call attention to artists?

Perfect Duluth Day turns 18 tomorrow.

It can get a tattoo,  a license to be an auctioneer, vote, marry without parental consent, buy cigarettes, possess a stun gun, and buy lottery tickets in Minnesota.

  But one thing it's been doing all along is drawing attention to art and artists, and Annie Dugan thinks that's just grand.

Read about the Frank Lloyd House that used to be in Cloquet and is now in Pennsylvania, and find out more about the one and only gas station the famous architect designed.

The American Indian Community Housing Organization (AICHO) is bringing in-person community events back with their Indigenous Food & Art Market, the second and 4th Saturdays of the month.

It's the perfect pairing of food and art!
