– 4:00 PM
Eileen Halverson will be demonstrating the Norwegian folk art of rosemaling (decorative painting) in the second floor hallway of the Old Courthouse Museum on from 1-4 p.m. Stop in any time during the afternoon for a demonstration and to ask questions about learning it yourself!
Throughout the upper-Midwest, Norwegian immigrants brought this style of painting with them as a decoration on trunks and household items. The colors are bold, designs elaborate, and items became true works of art.
