Paddles & Artwork (Hour 3)
The hour begins with Sheri Omernik & John Calewarts from Kayak Wisconsin. The season is upon us, and Sheri and John bring details on the local launches where they have kayaks available, and the process of renting the equipment. Through the discussion, they reveal the hidden gems of local waterways and how their self-serve rentals work. The episode paddles over to art with Greg Vadney from Manitowoc’s Rahr-West Art Museum, celebrating its 75th anniversary and showcasing a rare Georgia O'Keeffe piece. Greg also touches on the work the museum does to connect the community to the available displays and programs at the Rahr-West.
