News from Heidi Mae

The 4th of July is past, a family reunion has been accomplished, and, perhaps, best of all, I've enjoyed a swim in the warm water of Lake Superior. Now, the blueberries are ready to fill those ice cream pails... and bellies, staining lips and fingers blue... And, many more days are ahead for paddling on blue waters here in the northwoods.

Despite all the outdoor fun, indoor projects have been on tap for myself and for other local artists with the upcoming Annual Ely Greenstone Juried Art Show this weekend! For the third year, I will be be showing a selection of fine art photographs, including three 13" cotton prints framed in handcrafted maple frames and two 6" cotton prints framed for the miniature category. This annual show is held at the Miners Dry building on the edge of Ely overlooking Miners Lake. A Preview Gala is scheduled for this Saturday, July 17th from 7-9 pm. Tickets are available here. The exhibit is open for the public on Sunday from 10-4 and Monday and Tuesday from 9am-noon. Hope to see you there!

Later this summer, I'm taking a leap into new territory by taking part in two art fairs! The first is Art in Bayfront Park on August 21 -22 in Duluth, MN. The second is the Harvest Moon Festival on September 10-12 right here in Ely, MN. I'll post more information as these events approach.

For the local Elyites, check out the July 10th issue of the Ely Timberjay. One of my photos of the guys setting up the fireworks display was published on page 6!
