Phelps Mill Country’s Mission:
Phelps Mill Country’s purpose is to promote, stimulate and support interest in the Arts and related cultural traditions. We have sponsored the Phelps Mill Festival, now in its 28th year, to provide funding to accomplish our mission. Our children are our future and they need the interest, stimulation, and support of the future of Arts in Minnesota.
The Phelps Mill Festival, held yearly on the second weekend in July, brings together both artists and artisans in a display of various high quality works. Adding to the intrigue of the peaceful setting of the Park is the participation of guest performers appearing on stage and around the grounds. American and ethnic foods, served by nonprofit groups from around Otter Tail County, compliment the festive atmosphere.
A Special Thank You to the supporters of the Phelps Mill Festival!
In addition to the Thank You that we give every year, we would like to take the time to say a special Thank You to everyone involved with the Festival this year. Due to the flooding in the region, the Phelps Mill Festival had to make a lot of last minute changes that affected the exhibitors, volunteers, and the visitors to the show. The Phelps Mill Country Board and Staff would like to show our appreciation to the patience and open-mindedness of the show-goers this year. We feel that we met the challenges head-on and with amazing success. Thank you!
There is also special thanks to be given out to: The Otter Tail County Commissioners, Christenson Electric, Valley Acoustics Sound, Co., and the many volunteers, exhibitors, and non-profit organizations that are part of the 2011 show.
THANK YOU!
