EARTH & LIGHT

121 Judd Street, Marine on St Croix, MN

February 21, 2026

4pm - 8pm

All around us, human hands are at work. Some are moving clay and guiding it through alchemical firing processes. Others capture shadows and light with cameras, documenting and reflecting our lives back at us. Together we ride the earth through slow rotations in space, onward into the future.
Contemplate these cycles with an afternoon of short films curated by Paul Creager of the Square Lake Film Festival, screened alongside an installation of pottery by Nick Earl and Alana Cuellar.
