Minocqua Art Show

MINOCQUA - A new art show with a unique twist is touring the Northwoods.

"Drawing Water" opened Thursday at the Campanile Center for the Arts in Minocqua.

It features artwork from five area visual artists and a poet. 

The artwork is paired with scientific facts from the area recorded at the Trout Lake Research Station.

Campanile Executive Director Woody Woodruff says the pairing of art and science works well together.

"That's the connection between the two," Woodruff said.

"A meeting of the minds between the asthetics and the statistics. It's a wonderful rendition of all the different things that you see around us here that reflect what art means to the artist. And we can all relate to that because that's why we live here."

There is no cost to attend, although the center is accepting donations.

The exhibit runs through Sunday.
