Together\, these works create a collective meditation on how the environment shapes our internal mood\, presenting the landscape as a living\, breathing entity that shifts with the light and the mind’s eye. As you move through the space\, you’ll see a striking conversation unfold between three distinct media: the fluid\, weightless transparency of Nanci Yermakoff’s watercolors; the thick\, deeply layered textures of Jamie Lauler’s oil paintings; and the spectral light of Brian Billadeau’s photography. \n  \nThis runs daily 10/3/26 thru November 23\, 2026. \n  \nVisit the website to book your gate admission. \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-thin-veils-and-fluid-borders/ LOCATION:Minnesota Landscape Arboretum\, 3675 Arboretum Dr\, Chaska\, 55318\, 55318\, United States CATEGORIES:Arts and Crafts ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/png:https://cclocalnews.org/wp-content/uploads/2026/09/image-73.png END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Chicago:20261002T190000 DTEND;TZID=America/Chicago:20261002T203000 DTSTAMP:20260917T230302Z CREATED:20260917T230146Z LAST-MODIFIED:20260917T230302Z UID:10004093-1790967600-1790973000@cclocalnews.org SUMMARY:Hauntings and History Historical Walking Tours DESCRIPTION:Have you ever heard something go bump in the night?
