If anyone can overcome this Anna Bailey can!!! This is so terrible!! Let’s head out to the fair to support Anna and buy art!
Well… here’s a story I didn’t think I’d be telling.
Our entire Minnesota State Fair building is gone.
For years, we’ve stored our custom-built building in a shipping container and paid a monthly fee to a storage company in the Twin Cities to keep it safe on their lot.
Tonight , they called us.
They told us they accidentally sold our container—because they thought it was one of theirs.
But it was ours.
With our entire State Fair building inside.
Walls, flooring, signage, lights… all the things we’ve used to show up and do what we do each year at the Fair. Gone.
And now, with just days to go before the Fair opens, we’re left with nothing. No building. No backup. No plan B.
So we’re scrambling. We’re problem-solving. We’re doing what small business owners do—figuring it out in real time and trying to hold on to a sense of humor in the process.
We will still be at the Minnesota State Fair.
It just might look a little different this year.
Thanks for sticking with us through the chaos.
This is the part of the journey most people never see. 💛
