Opening Reception:Friday, September 4 | 6–8:30 PM 
Lowertown First Fridays Dates September 4 | 6–9 PM and October 2 | 6–9 PM 
Regular Gallery/Exhibit Hours; Open Saturdays and Sundays, 9 AM–3 PM; August 8 – September 26, 2026 and during Lowertown First Fridays from 6 – 9 PM.
Location: Calendula Gallery, the Poppy Room; 275 - 4th Street E, Suite 110, St. Paul
<img src="file:///C:/Users/debra/AppData/Local/Temp/msohtmlclip1/01/clip_image002.jpg">
Calendula Gallery is thrilled to present a solo exhibition by artist Ethan Edvenson, whose mixed-media drawings pulse with life, movement, and intimate storytelling. This vibrant body of work invites viewers into an expressive visual world that feels at once deeply personal and irresistibly alive.
Ethan Edvenson creates mixed-media drawings built from layered paper using India ink, colored pencil, and chalk pastel. His work is raw and lively, with loose, gestural marks that collide with carefully defined forms and figures. Each piece breaks free from the traditional rectangular frame, featuring cut and shaped edges that interact visually with one another, forming larger, organic installations when displayed together.
Edvenson’s imagery often centers on characters navigating landscapes of marks, symbols, and abstract forms. Their inner worlds are revealed through posture, action, and interaction with the surrounding visual elements. Recurring motifs create a visual language that feels playful, surreal, and deeply human.
Each of Edvenson’s pieces is intimate and conversational, echoing the feeling of paging through a personal journal or sharing a moment with a close friend. Humor and narrative are woven throughout, reflecting intentional, precise human decision-making and a genuine purpose behind every mark.
In Dwelling Under Polaris, themes of individuality, transformation, and wholeness run throughout the exhibition, championing the idea that every aspect of a person’s life holds immense value and purpose. The work celebrates beauty, human potential, and transcending the temporary, while quietly pushing back against what is artificial, superficial, or self-serving. Rather than striving for perfection, Ethan Edvenson embraces honesty, absurdity, and emotional accuracy, resulting in work that feels both fearless and profoundly alive.

Edina Brand Launches Smarter Jumpsuit Design

KRE PRIME

Minneapolis — KRE Prime, an Edina-based adaptive brand, is putting a practical twist on one of fashion’s most versatile and often impractical, staples. KRE Prime is an adaptive brand focused on style, accessibility and innovative design. The jumpsuit includes one base pant and two interchangeable tops, allowing wearers to create multiple looks from a single set. Each piece can be worn separately or connected with a discreet zipper to form a full jumpsuit. Grady said the inspiration came from personal experience. Although she appreciated the clean, minimal look of jumpsuits, she found them difficult to wear in everyday situations. “I wanted something that felt effortless but also worked with the way people actually live,” she said. “It needed to be beautiful, but also practical.” That balance extends to accessibility. The design allows the bottom portion to be removed without taking off the top, offering a more flexible and comfortable option for people with a range of mobility needs. Made from structured stretch fabric using recycled materials, the jumpsuit is designed to hold its shape while remaining comfortable enough for all-day wear. It is intended to transition easily from work to evening. Although KRE Prime operates as a digital-first brand, its roots are local. Grady, who launched the company in part to honor her late sister, said she wanted to create clothing that feels inclusive, thoughtful, and easy to wear. The Dual-Top Convertible Jumpsuit is now available in black and red, in sizes S through XL, priced at $150. Explore the Dual-Top Convertible Jumpsuit at kreprime.com.
