Moblie Sign making stops at community library

Artist Peter Haakon Thompson set up his Mobile Sign Shop at the Rock County Community Library in Luverne Thursday afternoon, June 22, where he assisted participants with making wooden handmade signs. The signs are reminiscent of the wooden, engraved, painted, handmade signs used in northern Minnesota to designate roads leading to lake cabins. The activity encouraged participants to talk about their signs and the origins of their names. The activity was sponsored by the Plum Creek Library System through Legacy Amendment funds.
