The Sisseton Arts Council, Heritage Museums of the Coteau des Prairies, and over a dozen local handcrafters and makers have joined together for the "Common Threads of America" art exhibit up now at the Nicollet Tower and Interpretive Center, as well as the Stavig House Museum. There is a wide variety of works from local quilters, beadworkers, crocheters, woodworkers, and other handcrafted pieces made with techniques passed down from generations.
