Art-A-Whirl 2017!

Hello everyone,

If you are a friend of mine on facebook (where I am much more active - https://www.facebook.com/nuttdraws/)you have heard plenty about it, but we have been working hard to get ready for Art-A-Whirl 2017.  This will be our 4th in the Solar Arts building (Above Indeed Brewery). We are in a new location over by the stair. The space is a little narrower than the last and houses Marcy, Leo, and I.

Friday, May 19th – 5:00-10:00 p.m.
Saturday, May 20th – Noon-8:00 p.m.
Sunday, May 21st – Noon-5:00 p.m.

711 15^th avenue NE, MPLS

2^nd Floor Studio 216 (by the stairs)

Please come and see us.  We have repainted the place, gotten art matted, framed, and even have progress pieces on the wall.  I will also have the recent collaboration with a high school student through MN Make a Wish Foundation on display.

This year we have worked to original art for all budgets:

-$5 dollar linoleum cut prints

- Over 90 shrink-wrapped matted pieces from $40 - $140

- Small framed pieces from $20

- Larger framed pieces from $200 - $1600

- Non-matted smaller originals from $10 - $90

- Non-matted larger originals from $90 - $200

- Smaller signed prints framed and unframed from $10 - $40

- Marcy has prints of her Geisha and Kids looking at a Polaroid

- Or just come to visit and see what is new and the amazing artist on the second floor.

Northrup King is the amazing Mother Ship for Art-A-Whirl, but if you want a more digestible amount of art and a more manageable crowd come to the Solar Arts first. 2^nd floor has about 20 working studios with fine art, jewelry, and fantastic pottery in our “old studio”.  3rd floor has Chowgirls Lounge with craft cocktails, Chowgirls Killer Catering local-and-organic twist on the retro TV dinner, and the MN Sculptors Society.

Indeed will have a huge line up of outdoor music and food.

More information here about the artist in the building and also on Indeed Breweries website will give you the music lineup:

You can’t make it to Art-A-Whirl or the crowds aren’t your thing, we are always open on First Thursday or we can meet most evenings with a little planning.

Just look for the giant TRex! by the door.

James, Marcy, and Leo
