A great lineup at Hovland Arts Festival




The remote North Shore community of Hovland has an abundance of amazing artists. Their work will be on display at the Hovland Arts Festival over the weekend of the 4th of July.

On display will be beautiful rag rugs and wool scarves, exquisite paintings and photographic prints, eclectic jewelry, wood creations of all kinds, beeswax candles and beads and much more.

Look for Mary Jo Flack’s newest creation, Hypertufa Earth Vessels. Consider getting a henna tattoo from Marla Huber. See watercolorist David Hahn at work. Visit with the artists and hear the stories behind their art.

There will also be an offering of music throughout the weekend thanks to many talented musicians donating their time. And next to the town hall, Trinity Lutheran Church will be cooking up a storm to feed Arts Festival attendees.

The Hovland Arts Festival will be Saturday, July 6 from 10 a.m. – 4:30 p.m. and Sunday, July 7 from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. at the Hovland Town Hall. Admission is free! For more information about the event, visit www.HovlandArtsFestival.com.
