Community Arts Access Project

This project will encourage local and state-wide artistic endeavors by September 30, 2013. This project will allow residents and visitors of Hackensack, Walker, Longville, Pine River, Backus, and beyond access to high quality 3-dimensional artwork not available anywhere else in Cass County during the exhibit period. This project will foster collaboration among the government, artistic, residential, and visitor communities by September 30, 2013.Ballots allowing the public to vote for their favorite sculpture, give their area of residence, and write comments about the artwork will be displayed in mail-box type structures along the Paul Bunyan Trail. Feedback from visitors will also be recorded via written comments in a specified notebook at the Hackensack Chamber building. Business traffic and revenue in the area will be compared to past summers as an indicator of economic impact.
