Report by BEN HEATH
April 11th was the first day of the first South Minneapolis Laypeople”™s Outdoor Sculpture Trail (LOST). Organized by Phillips neighborhood resident, Sam Molstad, non-sculptors across South Minneapolis displayed their creations in their front yards. Many folks made art from recycled, found, and natural materials including tree fungus, broken tiles, car jacks, holiday decorations, a potato, and holey tights. Sculptures are up through April and into May.

There is a facebook event page, and a google map of all the locations. So far there are 12 sites, some of them have more than one sculpture (or so much stuff in their yards it is hard to tell! ha!) It will be updated as sculptures are added/ removed.
