A Minnesota Without Poverty Introduces The Art Shoppe at Midtown Global Market

 AMWOP

 

A Minnesota Without Poverty 

Would Like to Introduce  

The Art Shoppe at Midtown Global Market

 

A local artist collective has opened a micro-business venture at Midtown Global Market!  This is a result of A Minnesota Without Poverty's Micro-Enterprise Catalyst Partnership and three non-profits combining forces to help the artists build a successful business.  

 

As part of a campaign to discuss the concept of Enough-What is enough?  Who has enough?

Art Shoppe
Shopper, trainer, and friend, Yolanda Cotterall, at The Art Shoppe

  Access to Enough for All - Local artists and A Minnesota Without Poverty, the Jewish Community Relations Council and Mount Olive Lutheran Church, have come together to create The Art Shoppe at Midtown Global Market, a  micro-enterprise venture at Midtown Global Market in October! 

 

The artists working at The Art Shoppe at Midtown Global Market are professional artists who share their experiences with poverty through their artwork.  All money generated from the shop goes to the artists and works toward ending poverty in Minnesota by 2020.

 

The seven artists building the shop are seeking to add more artists in the near future, and are planning to invite guest artists to demonstrate their art for the community.  The Art Shoppe will also feature a demonstration area where visitors will be able to watch the artists at work while they shop for art to bring home   

 Please come and meet the artists and support our venture!
