Duluth Mayor Roger J. Reinert will announce a year-long artist exhibition in the Mayor’s Reception Room at City Hall tomorrow with a reception to showcase the artist Kelly Schamberger and her work. The work is currently hung in the Mayor’s Reception Room and will remain there through 2024.

A short press conference will kick off the event tomorrow at 3:30 PM, and the public is invited to view the artwork and interact with Schamberger during the reception until 5 p.m. Light refreshments will be available.

Schamberger is an internationally-renowned fine artist, graphic designer, and art instructor. Her work features plein air landscapes, portraiture, and still life arrangements in the styles of realism and classical impressionism.

Schamberger is one of a select group of artists worldwide who had work included in the Lunar Codex time capsule placed on the moon by the Odysseus Lander in February 2024, and will also be included in the Polaris Collection moon time capsule launching in the fall of 2024.

Schamberger has exhibited at Sotheby’s New York, the Minneapolis Institute of Art, Minnesota Marine Art Museum, and Bell Museum.

Schamberger works from a home studio space in Duluth.

Howie: The city budget they don't want you to understand

Local Government Aid alone covers nearly $35 million, about one-third of the budget. It’s the difference between black ink and red. Lose even 5 percent of that aid, and Duluth’s “balanced” budget implodes by millions. That’s not financial strength — that’s dependence disguised as stability.

Howie: Lot D optics in motion

Duluth’s short-term goal is tactical — keep Inland’s exclusivity alive, hit the paperwork milestones, and convince the Legislature to fund the $10.85 million in site-prep money the city calls the key that unlocks $250 million in private investment.

Howie: City of Duluth levy up 52% in eight years

In 2025, for instance, they raised the levy by 1.85 percent but declared it a “0 percent” year for current taxpayers because new development supposedly absorbed the increase. But that’s a shell game. The levy still grew by nearly $800,000.

Howie: Vikings burning it down

That’s the tragedy of this season — it’s not the losing, it’s the lying. Every move is sold as “strategic.” Every mistake is “part of the process.” Every loss is “valuable learning.” It’s a corporate PowerPoint in shoulder pads. This isn’t football anymore. It’s asset management in cleats.

Howie: Bulldogs, Viktor Plante, Mirage, Jason Watt

There’s something quietly magnetic about Jason Watt on a Bulldogs hockey broadcast. He’s not trying to sound like anyone else. He doesn’t force energy or jargon. He just explains the game — clearly, comfortably, and with the kind of authenticity that comes only from having lived it.
