Finally, an artistic form of expression I feel capable of performing: Snowblower ballet.
The Star Tribune reports that a reporter for the St. Paul Pioneer Press has received a $35,000 grant from the Knight Art Challenge of St. Paul to stage a ballet on Harriet Island during the February 2018 Winter Carnival and and the Super Bowl.
If the Super Bowl doesn't put the Twin Cities on the map, a snowblower ballet will at a fraction of the cost.
Richard Chin's proposal aims to "transform the dreary toil of snow removal into joyful art with a ballet in which performers, equipped with snowblowers and shovels, stage a dance spectacle set to live music."
As we say in Minnesota: That's interesting.
