Sell your art in the park in conjunction with the Ely Tuesday night Farmers' Market! For the second year, NLAA has requested use of the park for Tuesday nights along with the Farmers' Market folks. To be in the park selling art, Artists need to sign up with NLAA as NLAA has requested use of the park for this event. NLAA will provide you with the Minnesota Revenue Sales Tax Form and a Disclaimer. Please fill out and return them to NLAA. You may not participate without these. Send an e-mail to nlaa@2z.net to request forms, or if you have your tax id ready, bring it along to the farmer's market and we'll have forms there for you to fill out. (If you don't have a tax ID, you can get one by visiting the Minnesota Revenue website.)

Welcome to ElyArts.org, home of Northern Lakes Arts Association (NLAA) in Ely, Minnesota, gateway to the Boundary Waters Canoe Area. The Arrowhead country of Minnesota has a natural beauty that attracts artists and those who enjoy and support the arts. 

The mission of the NLAA is to support and develop the arts - visual, performing and literary - in order to enrich the quality of life in Ely and the surrounding area. We create events in which culture of all types can be enjoyed by residents and visitors to the area. 

NLAA sponsors events in the visual arts, literary arts, dance, theater, and music. We also sponsor events especially for children throughout the year. 

Please view our events calendar at left and read the Announcements below to see what's going on in Ely arts.  To support our organization, become a member and/or volunteer your services.
