WHITE BEAR RESORT - The Artist on the Hill annual event, held on July 22 at White Bear Resort, had another successful year.
There was a steady flow of people that came to check out the hand-made items and art displayed by the vendors.
The cabins are situated just off of White Bear Lake and are nestled in the trees up on a small hill.
Charlotte Beaujot, owner of Tante Lottie, was grateful for the shade from the trees as the day heated up.
Nine local crafters and artists, including Michael Lonechild, had their items displayed on the yard and two decks.
Crafts such as pottery, jewelry, leather works, paintings and walking sticks could be purchased throughout the day.
The handmade walking sticks could be purchased through a donation and had no set price. The sticks were carved out of branches and had unique designs etched in them.
Lonechild had several of his detailed pieces on hand, and he is known for his life-like paintings.
Cheesecake in a Jar by Creative Eats is a fundraising program for all organizations. They are currently running six to 10 fundraisers each month, bringing in an average of $1,400-$4,000 for clubs.
According to the crafters, they were pleased with the day's turnout and look forward to next year’s event.
