Learn a little of the art history in the Coeur d'Alene area from the organization that really launched the art scene into what it is today, laying the foundation for Art on the Green and more. We talk to Terry Ann Swanson Blakemore, the current president, Yvonne Benzinger, former president and self-made historian of the group, and Brooke Baggette Milbourne, one of the newest members of this organization with over 75 members.

And join them this weekend out at the Kootenai Fairgrounds for their annual art show, starting today at 10 am until 8 pm tonight, with a wine reception fro 5-8 pm tonight. Then again tomorrow from 10 am to 5 pm.
