Ola and Per: Phase 2: Exhibit Plan
Giants of the Earth hired Bluestem Heritage Group to develop an exhibit plan for an exhibit about cartoonist Per Rosendahl. This project will help share the history of Per Rosendahl, a local cartoonist who developed the popular Norwegian-American cartoon "Per and Ola." This history will inspire the local community to embrace values of artistry, creativity, and risk-taking, and highlight the unique cultural life of Norwegian Americans during the early 1900s.
