Mantorville Art Guild founder’s retirement celebration Feb. 22

The Mantorville Art Guild will be hosting a reception in honor of retiring Guild founding member Theresa Hoaglund this Saturday, Feb. 22, from 1 to 3 p.m.
To say that the Mantorville Art Guild exists because of Theresa Hoaglund is putting it mildly, fellow Art Guild members say. She has put her heart and soul into the Art Guild for the past 25 plus years.
Her goal throughout those years has been to promote the visual arts within Mantorville and Kasson as well as the surrounding communities.
Family, friends, fellow artists and the community are invited to attend. Light appetizers will be served with music provided by Layne Noser.
The next big exhibit will be March Youth Art Month featuring an art exhibit by local students’ March 8-30. The exhibit may be viewed during regular gallery hours with a reception planned for 1 to 3 p.m. on Saturday, March 8.
The Mantorville Art Guild is currently open Thursday through Saturday from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. Summer schedule begins on March 1 with hours Thursday, Friday and Saturday 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. and Sunday 12 to 5 p.m.
