SAINT PETER, MINN. – The public is welcome at the Arts Center of Saint Peter’s annual
membership meeting on Sunday, Jan. 26, 4:00-5:00 p.m. at the Arts Center of Saint
Peter, including election of new board members, an exhibition of more than 80 pieces by
St. Peter High School Advanced Art and Art Concepts One students, and tours of the Arts

Following the business meeting, the Board of Directors will host a potluck for members
