The Arts are an important part of our business model at the Wild Hare; from the plates to the walls, every medium is explored and all artists encouraged.

We feature a new regional artist every month in conjunction with Bemidji's "First Friday Art Walk".  Opening receptions are held every first Friday of the month from 3-5pm.  The "First Friday Art Walk" is an excellent way to support the artists and businesses of Bemidji's beautiful Downtown, and to experience the wealth of creativity our community has to offer.

After the Art Walk, the Wild Hare features our own culinary artists with the "First Friday Wine Bar" from 5pm-9pm., offering a new menu every month! Click here to see next month's First Friday Menu (updated  two weeks in advance).  Wine and beer list to match!


The "Hat Ladies" have been a fixture here at the Hare from the beginning!  Their hand-made hats are functional and stylish; don't let a -20 below reading keep you from looking good!




Gorgeous and colorful silk always makes a great gift for loved ones or yourself!
