Red Hot Art's photostream

Red Hot Art is not your average art festival. We pride ourselves in providing the most accessible hands on arts experience, proving that art really is for everyone!

Red Hot Art is a two-day neighborhood arts festival that serves as a showcase for emerging Twin Cities artists. The event, free and open to the public, offers emerging artists and arts enthusiasts a great opportunity to network and participate in the city’s premier grass roots arts festival. Red Hot Art is a great opportunity to reclaim the park for neighborhood residents and local families. Red Hot Art’s mission is to celebrate the artistic diversity and urban vibrancy of Minneapolis in the historic Stevens Square-Loring Heights neighborhood.

Each Summer, Red Hot provides an ideal opportunity for artists of all mediums to showcase their work. Red Hot Art brings together 3,500 community participants. This year the festival will host 100 booths dedicated to visual artists, 25 musical acts to play on two stages, food from local vendors, and many local community organizations providing hands-on activities for visitors of all ages! We are also searching for public artists to create installations in the park during the festival.

Red Hot Art is hosted by Stevens Square Community Organization in cooperation with Stevens Square Center for the Arts. Red Hot is made possible, in part, by funds provided by the Metropolitan Regional Arts Council from an appropriation by the MN Legislature, and Plymouth Congregational Church.
