CURRENT EXHIBITIONS

 

Refugia

Kristen Anderson

with Susan Hawkinson & Loree Miltich

On View April 3 - May 22, 2026

MacRostie Gallery

Sponsored by The Loggy Dome

In the natural world, pockets of ecosystems that retain biodiversity and resilience amid changing conditions are referred to as ‘Refugia’. In northern Minnesota, our refugia are wetlands and, in particular, seasonal ponds. Kristen Anderson (Bigfork, MN) will display a series of felt tapestries representing this concept. Susan Hawkinson and Loree Miltich (Grand Rapids, MN) have composed an ekphrastic, double-voice poem as part of the exhibition that considers the remarkable life held in seasonal ponds and their essential role in the ecosystem of northern Minnesota.
