Maker Meets, held on one Thursday a month at Cantabria Coffee Company, are a place for artists, crafters and makers to work on their own projects or participate in a mini art project.
This week, Watermark celebrates its fifth anniversary in this fine arts facility at 505 Bemidji Avenue North, a dream that started with an enthusiastic group of lovers of the arts in 1967. Fifty-five years later, the center is a focal point for the arts, serving not just the Bemidji area, but the nine counties and three tribal nations that surround it and the many visitors to the area from across the state and beyond.
The Watermark Art Festival will be held from 10 to 5 p.m. on Saturday, July 16, and from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. on Sunday, July 17, at Library Park and across the street outside of Watermark Art Center.
