Sketchbook: Park Square Theater, St Paul MN

I attended the opening night of Spiders Web, an Agatha Christie Mystery, tonight at Park Square Theater. It was too dark to sketch during the performance, and a full house!  With the warmer weather, downtown St Paul is coming to life. Patio season has arrived  for Great Waters, The Meritage, Senor Wongs, Sawatdee, The Black Dog, The Bulldog & more.

Saturday & Sunday the International Children’s Festival takes place near the Land Mark Center & in Lowertown The St Paul Farmer’s Market starts at 6am on Saturday and goes to 1pm, and is open again on Sunday morning.

What a beautiful spring weekend.  I spent my weekend walking around looking at Sea Birds & boats in Bayfield WI, admiring the new ferns coming up & smelling the apple blossoms.
