What a fantastic couple of days at the Paradise Center for the Arts! The energy was electric at last night's gallery opening reception and kickoff for the Studioartour, and the painting of The Adventures of Alice in Wonderland set is now finished!

Today's Faribault Fall Festival and second day of the Studioartour brought the community together. The Paradise and staff member Char Johnson "Chili for Charities" both participated in the chili contest, and we are proud to announce that Char's chili won runner-up!

Don't miss the final day of the Studioartour tomorrow 10am-5pm and the opportunity to meet the talented artists.
