 You no longer need to be on a lake to land a lunker in downtown Bemidji, a giant mural that features a larger than life fishing pole and fish invites downtown guests to engage with the artwork and be creative themselves. Through a collaborative effort members of Gallery North came up with a concept and worked together over the past two months on the mural titled Land a Lunker. Finishing touches were placed on the Giant Northwoods mural this afternoon. Gallery North wanted to provide a piece of artwork that engages the public. I'm not even sure who mentioned it but they said I think we should put a giant fish on the back of that wall and I said but there are lots of fish downtown and they said oh but not like this one could be so that's where the whole land a lunker came from and stand by the fishing pole and catch your own walleye. People who take pictures with the new mural are asked to submit them to Gallery North for a chance to win monthly prizes.
