Pelican Rapids: Artists Working in Community Workshop
Saturday, March 29, 3:00 PM - 5:30 PM
Pelican Rapids Public Library
25 West Mill St, Pelican Rapids
The community of Pelican Rapids, MN has been selected for the 2025 Artists on Main Street Program, an initiative that supports small artist-led projects to activate downtown spaces.
The program will kick off with a free workshop in each community inviting local artists, creatives, makers, and culture bearers from Pelican Rapids to explore how art and creativity can strengthen their communities. This hands-on session will introduce ideas for using art to engage residents, attract visitors, and build local pride. Following the workshop, participants who live or work in Pelican Rapids will be eligible to learn how to apply for small grants of up to $1500 to support their own creative projects downtown.
Artists on Main Street is a partnership between Springboard for the Arts and Rethos: Places Reimagined. The 2025 Artists on Main Street program is supported by West Central Initiative and is made possible by the voters of Minnesota through grants from the Lake Region Arts Council, thanks to a legislative appropriation from the arts and cultural heritage fund.
