Walking with Giants
Art collecting is no longer reserved for the elite—it’s a powerful, personal act of preserving culture, supporting community, and telling stories that matter. Walking with Giants is an immersive art experience that spotlights the brilliance of local Black artists and challenges outdated notions of who art is for and who gets to collect it. Whether you're a longtime supporter of the arts or just beginning your journey, you’ll find powerful stories, bold creativity, and the opportunity to connect with the artists shaping our cultural future.
All are welcome. Come curious, leave inspired—and perhaps with your first (or next) piece of art.
Come for the art. Stay for the movement. Leave with a piece of the story.

Juneteenth at the Coliseum
Proud to be a Space Sponsor for Soul of the Southside 2025, the Coliseum has been reborn as a hub for BIPOC-owned businesses and cultural leadership. Its revival honors South Minneapolis' rich legacy of resistance and reinvention-making it the perfect setting for Juneteenth gatherings that celebrate both history and future possibility. Enjoy art, food, local vendors, and community conversations this Juneteenth at the Historic Coliseum-where culture, creativity, and connection come alive.
