🍁 Learn the versatile and relaxing craft of embroidery while making new social connections. Aquire core techniques and a solid foundation for your stitching, and make friends with like-minded neighbors. By the end you will begin your own fiber creations using flowers, leaves, and other embroidered shapes to take and complete at your leisure. Ideal for cold winter days when you rather stay cozy inside. This art form is perfect for upcycling, giving new life, and personalizing clothing ♻️🕺💃

📢 Hey everyone! We have an announcement to make:
From 2000 to 2025, Articulture has served Twin Cities communities in the following ways:
🌱 By providing accessible and high quality arts education to over 135,000 children and teens, as well over 28,000 adults,
🌱 By delivering artist residencies in metro art schools, and afterschool programs with Minneapolis Public Schools,
🌱 By bringing Art & Healing programs to children, teens, and adults in the metro area in partnership with nonprofits that serve vulnerable and marginalized populations,
🌱 By implementing outreach programs with community organizations, such as Touchstone Mental Health, Hope Community, People Incorporated, Our Savior’s Community Services, Wayside Recovery Center, Partnership Resources Inc, CommonBond Communities, Banyan Community Center, People Serving People Shelter, The Magnet 55+, and libraries in Minneapolis and St. Paul.
During this time, Articulture employed over 128 teaching artists, gave over 65 college students & newly graduated art majors arts education internships, and provided over 450 scholarships to connect students of all ages and backgrounds with creative expression through the visual arts.
Articulture has communally created one public art glass mosaic sculpture and 3 large murals, released 21 Art Cars into the world, and was featured in “Healing Seward” documentary directed by Nicholas Longtin, “Every Day is a Parade” directed by Deacon Warner, in MPLSART, and on MPR.
🔔 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! ❤️❤️❤️
