Hello everyone,
It’s great to be back, and I want to extend a big thank you to Chris for providing the Lindsborg Update during my absence.
Well, despite the recent snow, it is spring, and things are warming up here in town.
Tonight, Friday the 13th, the annual Methodist Women’s Spaghetti Supper will be held at the Methodist Church on south Main Street in Lindsborg. Take the night off from cooking, and support a good cause at the same time.
Tomorrow, live music returns once again to the Small World Gallery in downtown Lindsborg. Robin Macy and friends will be performing songs from their new album, “Songs from the Garden”. The music begins at 8pm, and admission is 10$ at the door. This is a great chance to hear some wonderful music in an intimate setting.
One of the cool things about the Red Barn Studio’s Artist in Residence program is that many artists return again and again. Starting April 17th, Sandy Milroy will begin her 4th stay at the Red Barn. In residence until April 30th, Sandy will continue her work using collage techniques.
And be sure to mark your calendars for the 28th of April! That’s the date of the 11th annual Lindsborg Area Artists Studio Open House. Many of the studios will be open from 11am until 7pm, and then at 8pm, the Heart of America Big Band will perform in the gymnasium at Soderstrom Elementary.
While you’re in town for the Artists Studio Open House, be sure to drop by the Lindsborg Library, where the Friends of the Lindsborg Library will be holding their annual book sale from 10am until 2pm. There will be 2000 books for sale, and the proceeds will help improve the library’s children’s area.
Looking ahead a little bit, we’ve got the Mill Fest coming up in early May, the 4th through the 6th, and then the weekend of June 16th, it’s time for the 31st annual celebration of Midsummer’s Day. Come hear the Swedish rock band Tiny Toads, and enjoy traditional Swedish dances, great food, an arts and crafts fair and more.
Till next week, this is Mike Rodriquez with the Lindsborg Update.
