DAVID R. YOUNGREN
"Celebrate Hastings"
October-December 2019
Join artist David R. Youngren at the Hastings Arts Center for his 2019 “Celebrate Hastings” Art Show.
Opening Night - October 19, 2019 - 3:00 p.m. to 7:00 p.m.

David is a local photographer, painter, graphic designer, and author.
He grew up just a few blocks from downtown Hastings and spent countless hours along the Mississippi riverfront and other waterways. His love for nature and "all things Hastings" is highlighted in his photography, paintings, and puzzles.
He is also known as "the bridge watcher," having taken over 11,000 pictures of the Hastings bridge replacement project between 2010 and 2014, which he then compiled into a beautifully narrated, hardcover collection entitled, Our Bend in the River.
David has painted several murals in his lifetime. Some of his most popular appear on the side of Fireside Social House (1997), inside the Hastings American Legion (2010), inside the Hastings Veteran's Home (2018) and on the front of the Coliseum Sports Bar and Grill (2019).
He is also the owner/operator of Arts Aloft in Hastings, which offers paint-and-sip style public and private art classes. You can find Arts Aloft class listings and details at: www.artsaloft1.com.
David is currently the Tourism, Marketing, and Events Coordinator at the Hastings Area Chamber of Commerce.
In his free time he enjoys trout fishing, supporting local events and businesses, and spending time with family and friends. He lives in downtown Hastings with his wife Valerie. They have two grown children and two grandsons who love to go for walks along the riverfront . . . naturally.
