Fall art show focuses on local artists, artisans

Shawano’s annual fall art show Miles of Art features work from the northeastern Wisconsin community’s fine artists and artisans, shown at various sites around the county. For 13 years, Miles of Art has aimed to focus on fine art and elevated craft, to share the area’s talent with attendees. The Oct. 6 event is free and open to the public. “The Shawano community harbors a great deal of hidden artistic talent and, in a small town, it goes surprisingly unnoticed,” said Megan Dorsch, Miles of Art chairwoman. “Miles of Art exists to give area artists a platform to share their works and processes with the public, through our intimate, one-day event.” The event has several artist display sites and studios open to the public from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Each site features a variety of media and artistic styles. The 2024 Miles of Art site locations are as follows, with the historic Novitiate site being the main event location: • The Novitiate – A Healing Ground, W9711 Butternut Road, Gresham. • Aschenbrener Bronze, W10181 Cherry Road, Gresham. • Off The Wall Art Studio & Gallery, 122 S. Main St., Shawano. For more information, visit https://www.facebook.com/smartwisconsin, email shawanomilesofart@gmail.com or contact Dorsch at 715-853-1513.
