Partnership Programs

Partnerships are a very important aspect of our work and serve as a conduit to expand our mission both within and beyond the walls of our studio. We have created a number of partnership programs to engage youth-serving organizations in our studio experience-- both through 1:1 engagement like our punch card program, as well as studio rental and private classes for groups. 

Partnership fees provide support for our Open Studio time so that it can remain fee-free for individual youth and families.

Past partners include:

Every child is an artist. The problem is how to remain an artist once we grow up.

Ways We Can Partner
Program Pass
Art can be a fantastic tool for relationship building and creative exploration which is why our Open Studio hours are a great opportunity for programs that work with youth in a 1:1 mentoring or case management capacity! 

10 visit Program Passes can be purchased for $75 and shared among your team. We'll manage the tracking so no need to worry about loosing a card between colleagues. Passes are good for up to 3 artists (including one adult) per visit and expire after one year.​

​A sliding fee scale is available for program budgets under $100,000. Email us or call 612-729-2483 to inquire about reduced pricing options.

COMMUNITY EVENTS and Projects
Community partners often invite us to infuse art into their events. Whether it's a school celebration or a marathon, we try our best to say yes to these opportunities. Additionally, we love to chat about project partnerships that better our community and create new opportunities for youth in the neighborhood. You can email Lindsay to explore partnerships like this in more detail!
