Arts Action Plan 2026 Initial Survey:

The Northeast Minneapolis Arts District board has developed a new Arts Action Plan survey (AAP II) to help us all understand our Arts District community’s current status: who we are now and what our needs are as artists in today’s environment. It has been 23 years since the original Arts Action Plan (AAP) was written. That document, released in 2003, is arguably the most important artist document ever created in Minneapolis’s art history. Help us update that plan by competing this survey.

Before You Begin – This survey is specifically for Northeast Minneapolis Artists, Space Providers, and Arts & Cultural Organizations.

Please complete this survey only if you identify with one or more of these sectors:

Artists living or working in Northeast Minneapolis
Space Providers with buildings in Northeast Minneapolis
Arts & Cultural Organizations serving Northeast Minneapolis

If you work across more than one sector, please complete a separate survey for each sector that applies to you. This helps us better understand the unique needs, experiences, and perspectives of each sector. BUT you need to use different email addresses each time you do the survey

The survey takes 12 minutes or less to complete.

Minneapolis Arts History Moment:

In the mid-1980s, artists moving to Northeast Minneapolis weren't always welcomed by longtime residents. What was it like to be part of a neighborhood that didn't yet embrace its growing arts community?

Our exhibit team spoke with three artists who experienced those early years firsthand. Read their stories and learn more about a pivotal chapter in Northeast Minneapolis Arts District’s history.

Minneapolis Arts History Moment:

Before the Northeast Minneapolis Arts District became the creative destination it is today, artists found imaginative ways to connect with the community. In the late 1990s, artists built elaborate parade floats for the Central Avenue Parade to introduce them to the neighborhood.
