Art Beat

Winona has a pretty great art scene for a city its size. Today on Art Beat we take you back to the Winona Art Walk 2023. Back in November several local studios opened their doors to the public so that we could all share in some local hometown art. There was so much art to see on the 2023 Art Walk that we decided to break it down into several episodes of Art Beat. On today’s episode, KQAL’s Ventress Heron takes us to Island City Clayspace and Grace Presbyterian Church to visit with some local artists. That’s the Winona Art Walk 2023, today on Art Beat.

Today, we take you to the Blue Heron Coffee House to see Peet’s latest exhibit, titled Print Dubs.
