The numbers are in, and the first Arnold Kramer art show in 30 years, hosted by Fieldstone Vineyards near Morgan, Minnesota has been pronounced a success.

Proprietors at Fieldstone reported around 300 guests on the last weekend of September, with one guest traveling from Washington, D.C. 

 

The guests spanned a number of generations.  In the above photo, Kramer's great-grandson, Geoff and his companions, view the collection which has been largely out of sight for 30 years.

Gail Finley, a guest from Mankato, Minnesota, described her experience. "The barn was such an appropriate venue for Kramer's paintings!  We had a great time at the "gallery" complete with tastes of wine while viewing.  I particularly liked the dark reds and the label from the Debauchery wine!  I had never been to Fieldstone before and was pleasantly surprised at the nice setting and tremendous amount of work they have obviously done.....we sat on the patio in the warm breeze and sunshine and thoroughly enjoyed the ambience!  We will definitely return!"
