Our fourth and  final day of the tour. In the morning we left for the Minnesota Marine Art Museum. After the guided tour and some time to explore on our own, we enjoyed a picnic box lunch on the patio. From the patio we were able to watch the tug boats move barges down the river. From there we drove over to Elmer's Auto & Toy Museum in Fountain City, WI to spend the afternoon.  The awards banquet was held in the evening.

Minnesota Marine Art Museum

 Current exhibitions on display included:
 European Art: This exhibition features a diverse collection of European paintings representing 300 years of art history, including works by Pablo Picasso, Marc Chagall, Edgar Degas, Vincent van Gogh, Paul Cézanne, and Paul Gauguin.

Impressions of Water:  Medina, Minnesota artist Clara Ueland creates beautiful and colorful prints inspired by her trips to the Boundary Waters of northern Minnesota, Lake Superior, and Scotland. The exhibition features an overview of her prints from 1997 to the present.

German Expressionism and the Sea: The German Expressionist painters were different than those artists that came before them in that they not only painted the landscape but they included the human psyche. They were not so concerned with the detail of the landscape, but instead, they were interested in the spirit and the emotion of the image. This exhibition shows how these artists used water to tie these elements together. The exhibition features works by Max Beckmann, Otto Dix, Lyonel Feininger, Erich Heckel, Wassily Kandinsky, Ernst Kirchner, Gabriele Münter, Emil Nolde, and Max Pechstein.

Sonja Peterson: What the Trade Winds Brought: Minneapolis artist Sonja Peterson creates large-scale artworks, sculptures and installations from complex and intricately cut paper. The interplay between her colorful negative backgrounds, shadows, and foregrounds of paper provide a sense of movement and vibrancy to her subjects. Her works explore the flora, fauna, and the history of travelers above and below the world’s water.

American Art: Paintings in this exhibition include historical works by American artists spanning the length of the nation’s history, including an oil painting by John James Audubon.

Three women triangulate this piece, representing the different power dynamics of American history.In the middle top is the face of Marie-Joseph Angelique, one of more than 12 million enslaved people brought forcibly to the Americas. Further den to the left side we see Cockacoeske, the Werowance or leader of the 17th century Pamunkey tribe, fading after years of sometimes brutal interactions with the first colonies.
