I recently participated in the Grand Marais Arts Festival. I just wanted to take a minute to express my experience with this festival and Grand Marais. This was my first time participating in this event; my wife and I made the trek up from the Twin Cities.
I cannot tell you how pleased we were with this whole event. The location was absolutely perfect. The organization of the event was great, from the moment we got into town until we left, we were well informed and knew exactly where we needed to be.
The Art Colony did a fantastic job with the organization and the volunteers were all such nice people. You truly made us feel welcome. I have done a number of art fairs now and this by far was the best! Your whole community welcomed us as artists and customers. You even got the weather to cooperate! Grand Marais is such a warm and welcoming community!
I do not write letters like this on a regular basis, but we had a great time and can’t wait to go back to Grand Marais.
