Turning Sidewalks Into Art Walks

The Artists in Storefronts project turns vacant or under-used storefronts into vibrant, engaging spaces showcasing original work by Twin Cities artists. By bringing art to the walkable urban landscape, Artists in Storefronts helps to revitalize neighborhoods, increase community engagement, highlight local creativity, and stimulate the local economy.

We believe in bringing art to everyone. That's why we're committed to using empty, informal spaces as mini-galleries that provide everyone equal access to community creativity and an opportunity to engage with it in unique ways. We also aim to create ambitious public and street art projects, such as Candy Chang's "Before I Die" interactive chalk mural.
