Thanks to Dakota County for their support.
We partnered with the City of West St. Paul and Explore West St. Paul Days to create the Let’s Explore West St. Paul contest, including a postcard map listing 25 locations across the city. It’s a summer of discovery with weekly prizes for exploring West St. Paul.
The map: The postcard features a map of West St. Paul and highlights 25 locations across the city. The Let’s Explore West St. Paul website gives more details on each location. The fun illustrated style, created by local artist Andrew Baussan, features a number of critters seen in West St. Paul (including a few unique ones).
How to get one: We sent copies to all our members and made them available at summer events.
How many postcards: This is the 18th postcard we’ve commissioned since 2019 to highlight West St. Paul, featuring the work of local artists.
