Want to write for the Arts District?

By Josh Blanc

The Arts District has 1200+ artists; you can bet there are amazing stories to tell. The Arts District is looking for those who want to write about these artists, their shows, events, achievements, and tell the story of the artists in the Northeast Minneapolis Arts District. We focus on mid-career and full-career artists to profile, to showcase how artists work and think to achieve their big ideas.

We publish our monthly e-newsletter, and we have a relationship with the Northeaster Newspaper, called the Arts Insights. We have themes we want to pursue, including interviewing several artists on the same or similar subject. looking for artists who have been working on big ideas or accomplishing major achievements. The challenge is to write succinctly for that space, and longer pieces for use online if warranted. There is some monetary compensation, along with the privilege and fun of an excuse to have great conversations.

Take a look at our archives, and you can see what type of stories we write.
