Arts Abound in Wahpeton and Breckenridge

This past Tuesday, Renelle Bertsch was the featured speaker for the Wahpeton Rotary Club's noontime meeting. An active member of the Arts community in Wahpeton and Breckenridge, Bertsch spoke about all of the wonderful art and cultural happenings in our community.

 

A board member of the Red Door Art Gallery, Bertsch spoke about the Gallery, but she did not stop her talk there.  She asked Rotarians to tell her what art we have in the community, and the list that was assembled was long!  From the Shawn McCann murals to the Sculpture Garden, the Three Rivers Art Council to Music in the Park, our community has plenty of options for those who want to experience the joy and pleasure that art adds to our lives.

 

Bertsch spoke about the importance of the Arts not only to a community's vibrancy and quality of life, but as an economic impacter as well.  A thriving arts community brings people to our community and attracts new businesses.

 

Thank you Renelle for such a wonderful presentation!
