SUMMARY:Art: Stillpoint\, Changing Line
DESCRIPTION:In a world defined by constant motion\, “Stillpoint\, Changing Line” explores the tension between what we hold onto and what we let go. This exhibition serves to illustrate that nothing remains static. Rather\, the “line” is both a boundary and a path\, marking the edge of what is known while leading us toward what is becoming. The exhibition brings together four distinct voices to explore as they move from the rigid and structural to the fluid and ephemeral. Viewers are invited to travel a complete spectrum of artistic interpretation as they enjoy “still world” of flower cloches to the kinetic power of untamed motion found in paintings. \n  \nVisit the website for admission tickets. Artist meet/greet will be held this day; exhibit runs through May 4.

SUMMARY:St. Patrick's Cooking Class
DESCRIPTION:St. Patrick’s Day cooking is often defined by a narrow set of expectations\, but Irish food has always been more layered than a single holiday plate. In this demonstration and tasting class\, Chef Cheo offers a fresh perspective on traditional Irish flavors\, exploring recipes\, techniques and presentations that feel both familiar and unexpected. \n\n  \n  \n\nRooted in land\, weather and history\, Irish cooking favors hearty ingredients and dishes meant to sustain and bring people together. Instead of repeating the usual corned beef and cabbage\, the class reimagines classic elements with thoughtful updates — turning soda bread into tender scones\, enriching cottage pie with Guinness and reshaping beloved flavors into new\, shareable forms that still honor their origins. The result is an engaging experience that balances tradition with creativity and offers new ways to enjoy Irish-inspired cooking well beyond March. Enter the grounds at the Farm at the Arb\, 3210 W. 82nd St\, Chanhassen\, MN 55317. See website for ticketing.
