Ripple River Gallery features turned and
carved wood vessels by Bob Carls, weaving by Amy Sharpe,
woodblock prints by Charles Beck, and a wide range of
”original work by over 50 exceptional regional
artists.”
Located on seven wooded acres about two and
a half hours north of Minneapolis, the gallery is open
year-round and features more than 45 regional artisans with an
ever-changing selection of wood, pottery, weaving, jewelry,
glass, mixed media, original prints, paintings and more.
From April through November, month-long
exhibits feature a body of work by individual artists or groups
of artists.
We also offer classes ranging
from traditional Scandinavian figure carving and nature
printing to basket making and drawing.
Each year we host a Fall Open House and
raku pottery firing on the first Saturday of October. Join
potter Jim Loso and glaze and fire a pot! Check out the “events” page for a complete schedule of exhibits
and special events.
We invite you join the Ripple River Gallery
community—stop by if you’re in the area or keep in
touch online. Remember…Art connects us all!
