WHERE DO THE GNOMES ROAM?

The Mini-Art Hunt is an annual favorite in Jamestown. It brings art to the people, and people to the parks!  Twelve unique mini-artworks by artist Cindi Psychos will be roaming throughout the Jamestown parks and Historic Sites. Can you find them?

Cindi’s hand carved wooden gnomes are roaming throughout the parks. Cindi has been a long time member of The Arts Center and the Wood Chippers carving group. The gnomes have been carved from local felled trees and represent the heritage and longevity of our community.

The hunt begins: Saturday, July 24th and ends when all 12 art works are found!  You can find clues at during the Buffalo Days on The Arts Center’s Facebook page.

CLUES: Three Sets of Visual Clues (photos) to each artwork’s hiding place will be made public on Saturday, July 24th at 10:00 am, 12:00 pm and 2:00 pm. The first clues will be the most challenging with the final clues being the most revealing.

HUNTING: All artwork will be hidden in PLAIN SIGHT—You will not have to move, dig, or otherwise damage anything. Visual clues to the artwork hiding places will be posted on our Facebook page and available at The Arts Center’s booth in McElroy park during White Cloud Days.
FOUND: Finders keepers! This original piece of miniature artwork is yours to keep.

Be sure to REPORT YOUR FIND. No one wants to be hunting for a piece that has already been found. Post a photo of yourself and your found treasure to our Facebook or Instagram page. Or contact the Arts Center office (701-251-2496 / info@jamestownarts.com) to report your find.

LIMIT: Please only one artwork per family (you are welcome to locate them all, but claim only one). So, get out to the parks and good luck on the hunt!
