🌧️ **Hibbing on Howard Art Night Cancelled Tonight**

Due to the forecasted rain and changing weather conditions, we have made the difficult decision to cancel tonight's Hibbing on Howard Art Night.

Because so much of tonight's event involves artwork, crafts, and hands-on projects, we don't want participants' creations, supplies, or displays to be damaged by the weather.

We know many of you were looking forward to a fun evening of creativity and community, and we're disappointed too. Thank you for your understanding as we prioritize the experience and safety of our artists, vendors, and attendees. We will parter art night with another Hibbing on Howard event this summer!

We hope you'll join us for the remaining Hibbing on Howard events this summer. Stay tuned for updates, and we look forward to seeing you soon! 🎨☔❤️

UPDATE 12:25 p.m.: Event has been cancelled for today.

**********************

Kickoff/Art night tonight! We are hoping for good weather tonight- we will keep you posted! Happy Monday!
