Step out of the “white cube” gallery and into the tall grass.

In a world that often feels heavy\, this exhibition serves as a sanctuary of illumination — focusing on the literal brightness of the sun-drenched sky and the figurative brightness of the human and animal spirit. This runs daily through 10/26/26. \nShare this:\n Share on X (Opens in new window)\n X\n \n Share on Facebook (Opens in new window)\n Facebook\n \n Email a link to a friend (Opens in new window)\n Email\n \n Print (Opens in new window)\n Print\n More\n Share on LinkedIn (Opens in new window)\n LinkedIn\n \n Share on Reddit (Opens in new window)\n Reddit\n \n Share on Tumblr (Opens in new window)\n Tumblr\n \n Share on Threads (Opens in new window)\n Threads\n \n Share on WhatsApp (Opens in new window)\n WhatsApp\n \n Share on Nextdoor (Opens in new window)\n Nextdoor\n Like this:Like Loading… URL:https://cclocalnews.org/event/art-the-brightness-of-being/ LOCATION:Minnesota Landscape Arboretum\, 3675 Arboretum Dr\, Chaska\, 55318\, 55318\, United States CATEGORIES:Arts and Crafts,Nature and Outdoors ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/png:https://cclocalnews.org/wp-content/uploads/2026/08/image-57.png END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Chicago:20260820T170000 DTEND;TZID=America/Chicago:20260820T190000 DTSTAMP:20260614T204012Z CREATED:20260614T204012Z LAST-MODIFIED:20260614T204012Z UID:10003959-1787245200-1787252400@cclocalnews.org SUMMARY:Touch-A-Truck DESCRIPTION:Roll on up to Touch-a-Truck and experience the thrill of sitting in a fire truck\, police squad car\, or a big snowplow! \n  \nAll ages are invited to this FREE event to play carnival games by Chaska organizations\, eat ice cream & popcorn (while supplies last)\, and then dance to the music of Kids Dance DJ.
