Project Overview
Carol Braaten conducted a two-day workshop on the art of rosemaling. She introduced the workshop by talking about the history of rosemaling and displaying the different styles from the various regions through samples of her own work. Participants practiced the art by painting their own sandwich boards during the remainder of the class. In addition, the artist's work was on exhibit at the library for 2 months, with many coming especially to see it.
