The arts buildings we send people to in Northeast Minneapolis. Part of our full arts buildings guide and the Northeast neighborhood guide.
A nine-story former agricultural seed and feed company building that is one of the largest working artist communities in the region. Painters, printmakers, sculptors, ceramicists, photographers, and mixed-media artists spread across multiple floors and hundreds of studios. First Thursday open studios and the Art-A-Whirl open in May bring thousands through the building. The closest the metro gets to a vertical art district.
A former casket manufacturing factory converted into one of Northeast Minneapolis's premier artist communities. Over a hundred individual studios across multiple floors, with painters, sculptors, photographers, and mixed-media artists. This is also where Josh Sundby runs his studio practice, enterSTELLAR. The building is a regular stop on the Northeast First Friday art walk circuit.
A historic industrial building in the heart of the Northeast arts district, housing artist studios and galleries including the long-running Rosalux Gallery. Part of what makes the neighborhood feel like a walkable arts district rather than a cluster of individual venues.
A converted industrial building at the southern edge of the arts district, dedicated to artist studios and community art programming. Anchors the lower end of the Northeast arts corridor along 15th Avenue NE.
Part of the historic Grain Belt Brewing complex along the Mississippi, adaptively reused for artist studios and creative businesses. The building retains its industrial brewing character while hosting contemporary artists and makers.
