We are saddened to announce the resignation of Barb Hone from the ACCC Board of Directors, most recently serving as Member at Large. Barb may be best known as the founder/organizer of ArtStock Art, Wine & Music Festival and the creator of the highly successful Purple Reigns event held last month. Over the years Barb has served on many committees and volunteered at the Arts Center. She always greets every ACCC project as an opportunity to engage with the community. Her smile and abundant amount of energy will be hard to replicate. The ACCC board and members are grateful for all Barb has contributed over the last 11 years. She has been a faithful advocate for the ACCC and we will miss her! Be sure to stop by the Barn Quilt booth at ArtStock to see her!

Carver County artist, Suzanne Theisfeld has designed the quilt.
The Arts Consortium and Art Tourism Committee had previously invited the public to participate in a naming contest to “name” this latest new barn quilt. The winner will be announced at the Taste of NYA on Tuesday, July 20, 2021 at 7:00 p.m. at the Willkommen Memorial Park, in Norwood Young America.

Elements of the quilt include maple leaves to represent the seasons and maple syrup production. Other elements represent park activities such as cross country skiing, the beach on Eagle Lake and the heavily used camp grounds. The center image represents the popular Eagle Lake Observatory. The cow is a symbol to the park’s agricultural history as a past working farm. Contact Janet Fahey, Art Tourism, arttourism@artsofcarvercounty.org to learn more.

DETAILS
Named in honor of Bill Monroe, “The Father of Bluegrass Music,” Monroe Crossing dazzles audiences with an electrifying blend of classic bluegrass, bluegrass gospel, original bluegrass and even selections outside the bluegrass genre. Their superb musicianship and on-stage rapport have entertained audiences across the United States, Canada and Europe.
For nearly 20 years this Minnesota based band has averaged over 100 shows a year. They love introducing newcomers to bluegrass music!
Monroe Crossing is made up of five very distinct personalities with differing musical backgrounds. When combined, their individual histories make for a unique sound. The three original members are: Mark Anderson (bass), Lisa Fuglie (fiddle & lead vocals) and Matt Thompson (mandolin & harmony vocals). Derek Johnson (guitar & lead vocals) joined in 2011. David Robinson (banjo, dobro & backing vocals) joined in 2012 and now performs with the band on a part-time basis. In 2007, Monroe Crossing was inducted into the Minnesota Music Hall of Fame. They have twice been selected to showcase at the annual World of Bluegrass convention hosted by the International Bluegrass Music Association (IBMA) and they have appeared twice at Carnegie Hall in New York City. In 2016, Monroe Crossing had the honor of being the first Minnesota bluegrass band to perform in South Korea.

Greetings Arts Consortium of Carver County Members, Friends, and enthusiasts!! We are heading into summer with sunshine and a full event schedule! The event line-up for the summer sets the stage for the ACCC to meet its mission: to strengthen our community through the arts – and cultivate the arts through the community.
Have an amazing June, be well and keep creating!
Our latest exhibit, Express Yourself in Purple, opens June 2. We are excited to see what our community of artists have created to honor Prince. This exhibit will open a month long celebration of our late hometown celebrity. In conjunction with the Exhibit, the ACCC is sponsoring the County wide event, Purple Reigns. We will honor Prince posthumously as our 2021 Honorary Member of the ACCC at the Artist’s Reception. As his favorite color was purple… it’s natural to bring everyone together as we “paint the County Purple” for the month of June. Purple Reigns is approved by the Prince Estate, Paisley Park.
Be sure to stop into the ACCC Gift Shop in June and pick up your free Purple mini – swag kit to start decorating your home or business!! Fun for the whole family!
Show Dates: June 2 to July 3, 2021 Artists’ Reception and Purple Reigns Honorary Ceremony: Thursday, June 17, 2021, 6:30 – 8:30 PM at the ACCC Arts Center Gallery and Chaska Community Center Theater.
