The Lakeshore Weekly News and David Schueller have a story this week on a piece of artwork that has been connected with Wayzata and Wayzata Public Schools since 1928.  Here is a snippet, as well as a link to the full article:

A work of art originally given to the old Wayzata High School by the class of 1928 is on display in the Wayzata Library, 600 Rice St.

The 4-by-10 foot piece called “America the Beautiful” includes three reproductions of paintings by three noted American artists.

It represents a part of Wayzata that no longer exits except in memory – the Widsten Elementary School, which was formerly the Wayzata High School, that was torn down in 1996 and replaced with condominiums atop the hill.
