New York Mills, MN — The Cultural Center of New York Mills is now showing in its gallery “Wood Interpretations.” This gallery exhibit features the art of 3 regional woodworkers: Dick Dubord of Dent, MN, Dick Skauge of Lake Park, MN, and Barry Kutzer of Fargo, ND. These three friends have come together in this unique show that highlights the talent of the artists and the beauty of wood.
