Jenn Walz of Crookston is the founder of Queen City Arts Center

The founder of Queen City Art Center Jenn Walz of Crookston spoke with Phil McKenzie this week about her accessible arts space in the historic Crookston Times building. Queen City Art Center is a creative hub with multipurpose studio space, retail gallery space, arts classes, and room for parties and events. Jenn has always been passionate about arts. She wants this to be a space for artists to come and receive support. She has a pottery studio in the space, including paint your own pottery. Classes include watercolor, acrylic, Shibori, mosaic, and more with a variety of area artists as teachers. Some of the space is under construction right now. She received a grant earlier this year from the Northwest Minnesota Arts Council for items for her kiln. You can follow Queen City Art Center on Facebook. Listen to hear all the details and stop by the space when you are downtown Crookston!
