One of the great joys this year has been to witness EMK Artistry work in community to add color to our Detroit Lakes office. Every piece of the rock snake has a story. The garden is vibrant with color even after the growing season has ended. Thanks Eliza for teaching us and holding space for both newbie and seasoned artists. Thanks also to Springboard for the Arts for your support of this collaboration.
