North Shore Camping Co. in Beaver Bay ART & ADVENTURE experience art and more on lake superior’s north shore Between their backgrounds in textile weaving and craft beer, Chereen and her husband Rob know exactly how creativity intersects with a highly sought-after sense of community. Or as Chereen said towards the end of the Colorado-based couple’s first Minnesota trip: “We have found our people.” FROM LOCAL GALLERIES TO WORLD-CLASS INSTITUTIONS After perusing the incredible art workshops and galleries housed in northeast Minneapolis’ Northrup King Building , Chereen and Rob took in portions of the Minneapolis Institute of Art 's nearly 100,000 piece collection. It features works by Raffaelo Monti (“Veiled Lady”), Vincent van Gogh (“Olive Trees”), Claude Monet (“Grainstack”), Chuck Close (“Frank”), Kehinde Wiley (“Santos Dumont — The Father of Aviation II”) and Francis Bacon (“Study for Portrait VI”). As Chereen said with a smile during her visit, “I can’t believe how much art this city has; it’s everywhere.” Northrup King Building, Ashley Mary Studio 88 | eXPLOre MINNESOTA .COM
