Arts and Culture Around Grand Forks
Lights, camera, action! There is plenty to see in the region – both still and live. Grand Forks region has a thriving Midwest art scene. The live performances are sure to wow you and the museums and other art pieces found around the city are sure to do the same. Downtown comes alive with outdoor music, art and wine walks, and art festivals.
Witness a variety of cultures both local and from afar when you attend local pow wows or visit the Buffalo Ranch. UND hosts many events every year including the Feast of Nations, which celebrates cultures from all over the world. The Midwest art scene and cultural celebration opportunities are plentiful in the Grand Forks region!
It’s big enough to have good times with sports and shows. And it is small enough so you can get around without stress. You can get acquainted with lots of people. Or if you prefer the quiet life, you also can find that here.
I love that there always seems to be something going on with sporting events, downtown events, or concerts. It’s small enough that you’re not in a city with traffic, but big enough that there is always something to do.

If you are looking for opportunity, for community, and just an overall great place to live – this is it! Greater Grand Forks has everything you need plus some, and if you desire more, major metropolitan cities are a short drive away. If you invest in this community, it will invest back in you tenfold.
From the “I Do’s” at a wedding, to the smell of roasted almonds before the game winning goal, it makes me proud to call the Ralph home. And we are just a small part of the uniqueness that makes Grand Forks, “way cooler than you think”.
In what other community of similar size can you experience international touring acts, a multitude of sporting events, regional conferences, banquets, weddings, and other touring entertainment including family shows, monster trucks and more in world class facilities? We are so fortunate to live in a community where we can bring incredible entertainment to life in several area venues that all want to see Grand Forks grow and thrive.
