Marriage proposals can be simple and private, they can be lavish and public... and sometimes they happen at Homegrown.
For Andy Welch and Karen Sheldon, their love story became a highlight of the Homegrown Music Festival 2025 when a performance by Stardust Collective at the West Theatre evolved into an expression of love and a moment to remember for the couple, and for all who were in attendance.
Now, a year later, the couple looks back on the moment and talks about their connection to the annual music festival.
You can hear Community Connection every Tuesday and Thursday at 8am on Northland Morning. Homegrown Music Festival coverage on the North is supported by Music Go Round Duluth and is made possible with funding from the Minnesota Arts and Cultural Heritage Fund.
