MontiArts Newsletter June 2026
June has arrived, and MontiArts is buzzing with creativity!
Our mosaic workshops continue to bring together an incredible team of community artists as we create new public art for Monticello. We’re also excited to launch several new classes this month, offering fresh opportunities to learn, create, and connect. If you haven’t checked out our summer lineup yet, now is the perfect time!
There’s plenty happening beyond our walls as well. The Floral Art Show remains on display during regular gallery hours, Riverfest is just around the corner, and our Teen Art Club is gearing up to help add color and creativity to Monticello’s new skate park.
Whether you’re looking to take a class, volunteer on a public art project, enjoy local artwork, or simply stop by and say hello, we hope you’ll join us. Thank you for helping us continue building community and connection through creativity. We can’t wait to see what we create together this summer!
Stay Inspired and Stay Connected!

New Class
We are excited to welcome Minneapolis artist and MontiArts friend Sandy Forseth for a series of four classes this summer and fall!

Join Sandy as she shares her creative process, techniques, and love of mandala art in this special series.
