SUMMARY:From Tuscany to Trempealeay Art Exhibit by Colleen Shore
DESCRIPTION:Throughout October\, 2025\nElmaro Vineyard (Crush Pad)\nArtist reception: October 26 | 1-4 PM \nAgritourism is the focus of my upcoming exhibit of original oil paintings. Inspired by Elmaro Vineyard\, motivated by Poggio Etrusco and encouraged by Ecker’s Apple Farm\, I hope you’ll enjoy my perspective on the efforts of farms to diversify and add the element of tourism. \nElmaro\, has been a great supporter of my art\, having been invited to display in the crush pad for the past four years. This relationship has opened my eyes to the multitude of activities they provide in a rural setting\, attracting and entertaining their visitors with tasting\, consumption and purchases. During all the seasons\, I’ve painted or sketched on site getting to know the owners\, vineyard workers\, event staff and servers. Inspiring me to put together this show. \nPoggio Etrusco\, an experience of a lifetime at a 1600’s farmhouse B&B in the Tuscan Countryside. What can I say but thank you Karen S. for inviting me to come along on this journey. I had to figure out how to take my art supplies overseas to be able to capture the olive harvest on my easel and it was well worth it. Pamela Sheldon\, owner and cookbook author\, also added to the experience by providing cooking classes and organizing wonderful events like truffle hunting and cheese tasting in the area. Motivating me to express my delight through my art. \nEcker’s Apple Farm\, I focused on Ecker’s family farm after exploring other Agritourism in the Trempealeau area. I reached out to Sara who was more than welcoming to allow me to do some plein air painting on the property\, I was able to catch the apple blossoms just in time with her assistance. I knew right away the passion they had for continuing the family business. It’s certainly more than U-Pick Your Own Apples from the old days. Encouraging me to add one more element of final inspiration for this show. \nI hope you’ll enjoy my tribute to the hard work of these three rural businesses and celebrate with me at my closing reception on Sunday\, Oct. 26 from 1-4pm. \nMore information at cshoreartwork.blogspot.com\nQuestions cshoreartwork@gmail.com \nColleen Shore is a member of the River Arts Alliance.

SUMMARY:Artist Exhibit  "Farfetched Fish"
DESCRIPTION:Opening Reception  October 26  1:00-4:00pm\nArtist talk  2:00pm\nExhibit dates:  October 26-November 23\nWinona Arts Center 228 E 5th Street\n\nPlease join us for the opening of Linda Sue Eastman”s latest exhibit entitled Farfetched Fish.  The opening is from 1:00-4:00 pm with a talk from the artist at 2:00.  The exhibit runs through November 23 with gallery hours on Saturdays & Sundays from 1:00-4:00.\n\nLinda Sue Eastman’s school of fish was created with smiles\, imagination\, and fine technique.  Starting with one simple knit fish she grabbed the idea and swam with it\, making a  plan to write a book others could use as inspiration.  Readers can use her book as inspiration for creating knitted fish using their own choice of yarn\, color\, pattern\, and embroidery.    The Exhibit takes you from start to finish of her years-long project.   You are invited to attend the exhibit and wonder at the patterns and the fish\, including a peek into Eastman’s artist copy of her book. \nEastman will be providing fish knitting classes during the month of November\, one for new/learning knitters\, and one for those with basic knitting skills.  Look for the details of the classes on our website\, FB page\, and our November WAC at a Glance. \nContact:  cnelsonk12@gmail.com \nWinona Arts Center is an organizational member of the River Arts Alliance.
