ArtiCulture - Art as an agent of change

Over the past eleven years ArtiCulture has reached thousands of members of our community with accessible arts experiences. Our educational philosophy is one of exploration and experimentation, with an emphasis on the creative process and less weight given to the product. The outcome of the experience for participants, amateur and expert alike, should meet both the artistic and social needs of the community. ArtiCulture believes that exposure and accessibility to the arts is the foundation of a healthy, vibrant community.

Whether it be a parent and toddle art class, teaching developmentally disabled artists, engaging with neighborhood youth to create a community mural, or developing art as personal growth curriculum for women in recovery, selling affordable works by local artists, ArtiCulture realizes its mission to educate, enrich, and nurture through the visual arts.

ArtiCulture is recognized as a leader and is sought out for partnerships with schools, community groups, and other arts institutions. We have been awarded direct grants and partnership grants by entities such as the MN State Arts Board and the Metropolitan Regional Arts Council. But all that recognition does not keep ArtiCulture running. To keep being a vibrant force in the community, ArtiCulture needs support of individuals like you.

ArtiCulture operates on a bare bones budget, squeezing every cent in order to be able to include as many people as possible in ArtiCulture programming and to keep class fees affordable and within reach for other community members through class scholarships. Support of any amount is guaranteed to go a long way.
