Articulture

For 25 years, Articulture has been a creative home in the Twin Cities. Now, as we prepare for an exciting new chapter working with Twin Cities Maker, we’re turning a page. Our mission to empower individuals and communities through art continues, but our footprint is changing. And that means we have some items that need new homes.
This is a fundraising sale, and a passing of the torch with a little celebration. We’re inviting you to take home a piece of our history — items that have facilitated thousands of moments of creativity and connection, while chatting and enjoying together!
You’ll find everything from unique art books and display pieces to children’s books, art supplies, office cabinets, shelving units from our store, and even some kitchen supplies - in other words - something for everyone! Come with curiosity and leave with your treasure. Lots of office supplies, children’s toys and games, retail fixtures, artwork, and much much more!
📍 Where: Articulture, 2613 E Franklin Ave
📅 When: Saturday, Oct 25
⏰ Time: 10:00am - 4:30pm
If you don’t want to get anything, no problem - come by just to say hi and enjoy light snacks with members of our community!

🔔 ORGANISATIONAL UPDATE:

Articulture has partnered with Twin Cities Maker who will be providing space for Articulture classes at their location from now on. Unfortunately, TCM space is only for adults and not conducive to teaching children’s classes, so sadly after 25 years we will no longer be offering classes or camps for kids. 💔 We have cherished the many young artists who have come through our doors throughout the years - we will miss you! ❤️❤️❤️
