What is Little Art Gallery- willmar?
The Little Art Gallery is an inclusive art project hosted by the Willmar Community Center. We hope that creatives of all ages, backgrounds in the Community will explore their creative skills and use these galleries to express their talents!
The Little Art Gallery Program strives to create community connections, inclusion and engagement towards creating different art!
We encourage artists to use any art mediums that will fit in our 12" x 20" gallery! Personal art pieces can be submitted or you may participate in one of our monthly "LAG Art Sessions" where we will create art to be placed in galleries.
Little Art Galleries can be found at various locations in the City of Willmar:- Robbins Island: Destination Playground
- Swansson Field Sports Complex (2 Boxes)
- Bethesda Willmar
- Willmar Public Library
- Ridgewater College Willmar Campus
