With Dauphin Culture Days right around the corner, here's a preview on what the month-long event has to offer.
Organizers have made adjustments to the schedule this year due to restrictions currently in effect for Prairie Mountain Health, and have extended their week-long event into a full month of activities.
Chamber Art Challenge
Culture Days kicks off with the Chamber Art Challenge, where members of the Dauphin District Chamber of Commerce are challenged to create art of their choice. Their creations will be displayed at the Dauphin Public Library as well as online, where you can vote on who made the best art.
Intersection Of COVID And Creativity
Art pieces will be displayed in the window of Mega Deals in Dauphin representing how the COVID-19 pandemic has changed our world.
