THE LOST WORKS OF PETER GRIES
The muralist history almost forgot

For decades, his work lived quietly on the walls of Kegel’s Inn.
Then something unexpected surfaced…

A hidden collection.
Stored away in a closet in Winona, Minnesota.
Discovered by his great-grandson.

Now, for the first time ever—
these unseen paintings will be on display.

If you’ve admired the murals at Kegel’s Inn,
you’ve seen only part of the story.

Peter Gries was more than a muralist.
He was an artist finding his place in a new country
sponsored for citizenship by John Kegel in the 1930s.

This is the rest of that story.

Wednesday, May 20
5–8 PM | Kegel’s Inn

Tickets Include:
• Wine & cheese pairing
• Chamber networking
• Exclusive access to the exhibition

A once-in-a-lifetime showing.
A piece of history that almost stayed hidden.
