This Free Minnesota Sculpture Park Fills Open Fields With Giant Chickens And Metal Monsters

Some people drive past this field near the St. Croix River for years without ever pulling over. That turns out to be a big mistake. Behind a modest welcome building sits a sprawling prairie packed with more than 100 oversized sculptures, and many of them are meant to be climbed, entered, or touched. Admission is free, the art keeps changing, and the whole place sits about 45 minutes from the Twin Cities.

Historic Eau Claire cemetery entered into state register

EAU CLAIRE — History is everywhere, according to UW-Eau Claire University Archivist Greg Kocken. It’s often just a matter of recognizing it. The State Historic Preservation Review Board has approved Forest Hill Cemetery to enter the State Register of Historic Places, a promising step into the location eventually being seen as an entrant in the national register, administered by the National Park Service (NPS). With Forest Hill Cemetery being a landscape, Kocken says those can be harder to see entered into the National Register of Historic Places compared to pieces of architecture — buildings often carry aesthetic markers of their respective eras, as well as encompassing famous figures or historic events that took place in the past. The university archivist argues that cemeteries as a whole have a place as important cultural landmarks though, and understanding their importance has become a noticeable trend in recent years. “Right now we’re starting to recognize that those cemeteries are important parts of our communities. They’re historic landscapes,” Kocken said. “They’re part of the cultural identity of a community.

Baltderdash to perform in Shell Lake this weekend

SHELL LAKE — Eau Claire saxophonist Sue Orfield returns to the Shell Lake Arts Center with her band Balterdash on Saturday, Nov. 7, at 7 p.m. in the Erika Quam Memorial Theatre. Orfield knew what she wanted to play the moment she heard a tenor saxophone on the radio while riding on a school bus as a child. She picked up the horn in fifth grade, at age 10, and it came naturally. She has played piano even longer, since first grade, and still uses the keyboard to write music and accompany her students. Today, Orfield is a freelance musician who leads and plays in several bands. She has been on the stage wth Bo Diddley, Bobby McFerrin, the Indigo Girls, Ann Wilson (Heart), Dizzy Gillespie, Ivan Neville and Jo Dee Messina. You can find her performing in the Twin Cities a couple of times a month and across Wisconsin. Her ties to Shell Lake run deep: She attended the Arts Center as a high school camper and has taught at its jazz camps several times. Balterdash features Orfield with Dustin DeGolier, who also teaches at the Arts Center’s Rock Band Camp each summer, John Utphall, Randy Sinz and, new
