We are pleased to announce that the Northrup King Building is collaborating with tpt 2’s MN Original on Saturday, November 8th to bring even more flavor, variety and entertainment to Art Attack 2014.

In addition to our lineup of MN Original artists we are also featuring other projects, readings, music and more:

Tom Combs, an Emergency Medicine physician with over 20 years experience, presents a reading of his new book – Nerve Damage – a suspense/thriller novel that has been well-received, strongly reviewed and is selling well. It involves unforgettable characters, fast-paced action and intrigue that unfolds in iconic Twin Cities locales.
