I have to (shamefully) admit that in the 5 years I’ve lived in Minnesota, I’ve never been to the State Fair. Twin-Cities artist Peter Haakon-Thompson’s Auto-Ethnographic Guide Service may be the perfect solution for a novice like me to get a crash course in fried food and seed art.
Peter trades a limited edition print (which you buy) for a whole day of his guide service. This year he teamed up with Minnesota Public Radio to produce free audio tours that you can download for free here.
Mmm, mini donuts.
I lived in minnesota for 6 years before going to the State Fair last year. Let me tell you, I was missing out. And so are you. Go get something on a stick.
