Medicine Lake Art Shantys

This weekend is the last weekend of the Art Shantys.  What better way to spend a warm winter weekend, than to check out some outdoor art?  You should go! Bring yourself a thermos of coffee/hot cocoa and you'll find yourself there for a few hours enjoying the event. That's what happened to me two weekends ago, minus the hot beverage that I wishes I would have brought. 
Just a few short miles away one Medicine Lake, there are at least a dozen shantys for you to check out.  I'd recommend the Naught Shanty, the Audio Adventure Shanty, the Dance Shanty, and of course- the Sashay Shanty....
It was really cold out on the weekend we were out there and so most people were seeking warmth in the shantys. The Sashay Shanty was packed to the brim with lovely clothing!  Here's a shot of our necklaces.  
-and here's a peek at one of the trunks of clothing.  Everything inside the shanty is made by local artists and anyone can go in and try things on.  

And here is one of the necklaces you can try on in the shanty, by Witt of Witt and Lore.  This is the biggest one we've made.  The mother of all beaded pendants.

Go to the Art Shanty's website to read up on hours, shanty details, get directions.  http://www.artshantyprojects.org/
