For more than two decades, the Meander Upper Minnesota River Art Crawl has been a fall tradition, drawing locals and visitors to the scenic Upper Minnesota River Valley. This year’s event, taking place October 3–5, invites guests to explore a three-day, self-guided tour through artist studios, farms, and charming main street buildings from Ortonville to Granite Falls. Recognized as a one-of-a-kind “hometown adventure,” the Meander features the work of 42 talented artists, with studios open Friday, October 3 from 12–6 p.m., Saturday, October 4 from 9 a.m.–6 p.m., and Sunday, October 5 from 9 a.m.–4 p.m.
