SUMMARY:Fine Craft Collective: Holiday Shopping | Northfield Arts Guild
DESCRIPTION:Make a holiday day trip to Northfield and discover the Fine Craft Collective\, a five-week pop-up gallery featuring original work by approximately 25 juried regional artists. \nNow in its 23rd year\, the Fine Craft Collective brings together ceramics\, jewelry\, textiles\, wood\, glass\, painting\, printmaking\, ornaments\, home goods\, and more. More than half of the participating artists are established career artists\, and shoppers will find everything from affordable handmade gifts to one-of-a-kind works of art. \nUnlike a one-weekend holiday market\, the gallery is open six days a week from November 17 through December 24\, with artists restocking throughout the season. \nJust 40 minutes south of the Twin Cities\, the Fine Craft Collective is an easy addition to a holiday day in historic downtown Northfield. Browse the gallery\, grab lunch or coffee\, and explore Northfield’s independent shops\, bookstores\, and other local businesses. \nFree admission.

SUMMARY:Wild Beauty: The Botanical Art of the Eloise Butler Wildflower Garden Florilegium | Bell Museum - St Paul
DESCRIPTION:Experience the beauty of a special place in the Twin Cities! The Eloise Butler Wildflower Garden is the oldest public native plant garden in the United States. Located in the heart of Minneapolis\, it brings together a diverse collection of plants in woodland\, wetland\, and meadow habitats in just 18 acres. This unique garden started by Eloise (and others) has been carefully cultivated over 120 years by many hands into the wondrous place it is today. \nThe Eloise Butler Wildflower Garden Florilegium captures the intimate details of the beautiful wild plants of this garden.

It carries on a tradition of botanical illustration that brings together art and science to create accurate\, yet expressive\, depictions of living plants. \nThis all-ages exhibition centers on the 111 watercolors of the florilegium. It includes hands-on activities\, such as a collaborative garden mural and an opportunity to learn to draw plants\, as well as a video projection and collections highlights\, including specimens collected by Eloise Butler herself for the University of Minnesota Herbarium. \nThis is a Weekly Recurring Event\nRuns from Sep 26\, 2026 to Jan 3\, 2027 and happens every:\nWednesdays: 10:00am – 4:00pm Timezone: Central Time (US & Canada)\nThursdays: 10:00am – 4:00pm Timezone: Central Time (US & Canada)\nFridays: 10:00am – 4:00pm Timezone: Central Time (US & Canada)\nSaturdays: 10:00am – 4:00pm Timezone: Central Time (US & Canada)\nSundays: 10:00am – 4:00pm Timezone: Central Time (US & Canada)
