November at the Art Center
What will November bring besides less daylight, colder temperatures and the opportunity to eat too much turkey and pumpkin pie as a way of showing our gratitude for our many blessings?
This year, November brings the Daisy Hagen Auction for the Arts, the fund-raiser for the Fosston Community Library Arts Association.
The date is Sunday, November 27, at 2 p.m., an earlier time than in past years. Lynda Lohmeier will again be the auctioneer, and the Fosston GFWC Athenian Club will be providing the refreshments. For more information, or if you‘d like to help out in some way, contact Jerry Slough (435-6551) or Kim Wilson (435-6753).
There’s a new display in the Sorenson Gallery featuring wildlife photography by Dean Vikan. A native of Fosston, Vikan returned to his home town after a career in the air force and lives near Sand Hill Lake south of town. He became interested in digital photography when editor and publisher of the Thirteen Towns. Most of his wildlife photos were taken near his home. There are pictures of deer, bear, fox, otters and a number of different varieties of birds.
The sound lab is up and running. If you are interested in learning how recording technology works, or if you’d like to record something yourself, contact Eric Olson at 218-694-2687 or soundlabfosston@gmail.com. Remember, you don’t have to be musical to do recordings. How about making a recording telling your grandchildren some family stories? That might make a perfect Christmas gift.
The Books and Bonbons book club will meet Tuesday, Nov. 8, at 7 p.m. November’s book is The Thirteenth Tale, which is definitely a booklover’s book, set in book stores and libraries, a story about secrets, ghosts, books and family. I loved it!
Writers’ group will not meet in November because of Thanksgiving, but will instead meet on Thursday, December 1, at 7:30 p.m. Anyone interested in writing is welcome. Even if you don’t yet have anything to share, come and check it out.
The latest report on the used book sale was that at least $700 had been raised for library programming. The final figure should be higher than that, as the sale still has a couple of days left to run as I am writing.
Remember that the library will be closed on Friday, Nov., 11, in observance of Veterans Day, as well as on Thanksgiving Day on November 24.
