The St. Croix Center For The Arts or "The ArtBarn", as it is lovingly called, is housed on 6.5 acres of beautiful landscape and at the heart of it our cherished 110 year-old barn. Our historic barn houses a 150-seat theatre, a rental gallery for artists, and a meeting/lobby space.
Established in 1993, the artists who created the St. Croix Center for the Arts, recognized the need for shared art resources in the river valley. Since then, The St. Croix Center for the Arts, or St. Croix ArtBarn, has been serving Osceola, and the surrounding communities with art classes, community theatre, rental space, gallery space, music, and special events.

At Farmaste Animal Sanctuary we believe that all animals have inherent worth, and that farm animals are not an exception to that rule. We rescue abused, neglected and unwanted farm animals and bring them to our 30-acre farm in Lindstrom, MN. There they are allowed to roam in the pastures, and live out their days free from cruelty. Farmaste Animal Sanctuary also provides opportunities for people to connect with the animals and hear their stories through our scheduled tours and volunteer opportunities.
