Paul Pleasants, a member of the MRF cast and creator of Pulanami Puppets, was able to go to the site of the fire and take some pictures. Those pictures and his commentary can be viewed by clicking here.


From the MRFfriends ListServe, Kat Hanson, owner of Kat in the Hat (a fine shoppe Selling Chapeaus & Accessories) wrote a beautiful letter telling what it was like to discover that the festival site had been damaged by fire. She has graciously allowed me to include her letter here.


The St Paul Pioneer Press had an article about the fire.

The Minneapolis Star Tribune had an article with pictures about the fire.

WCCO, Channel 4 has an article with pictures as well.
