Live music, dance, tasty treats, creative crafts, beautiful artwork, classic cars and colorful motorcycles will be featured at the 10th Annual Arts Roundup held near King Pavilion on the Dickinson State University campus in Dickinson, North Dakota on July 5th from 11:00 a.m. to 7:00 p.m.

If that’s not enough you can get creative with the kids and press rice paper onto an ink covered fish, an art form created by Japanese fishermen in the 1800’s to record their prized catches.  This is just one of the artistic activities planned for children of all ages from noon to 4:00 p.m.

Live entertainment will kick off at noon on the King Pavilion stage with contemporary, hip hop and jazz dance numbers being performed by Hardcore Four Performance Company and Northern Plains Dance of the Velocity Dance & Yoga Studio.  Singer/songwriter Jessie Veeder will perform beginning at 1:30 p.m. followed by Dr. Steve Werpy, a jazz saxophonist at 3:00 p.m. and Pistol Grip, a classic country and rock and roll band from 4:30 p.m. to 7:00 p.m.

The paintings of Troy David, the “wood turning” of LeRoy Boespflug, the paintings, photography and jewelry of Shawna Andrea Fricke and the elegant lamps, mirrors, knives and end tables made out of moose antlers, buffalo skulls and stainless steel by Jay Urlacher will be featured in the Rider Gallery at the Alumni Foundation house throughout the day.

Venders from Iowa, Minnesota, South Dakota and North Dakota will sell a wide assortment of products including purses, pottery, photographs, glass pieces, sewing items, floral crafts and wood carvings at over thirty booths.  Then at 4:30 p.m. classic cars and motorcycles will roll in and line up along 8th Avenue in front of the Alumni Foundation house.

Other sites to visit are the art gallery at DSU’s Klinefelter Hall and the gift shop/university store at the DSU student center.
