The Red Hot Art Festival happens annually in Stevens Square Park. In its seventh year, it offers local, emerging artists the opportunity to display and sell their work in a community-based environment. Red Hot Art’s mission is to celebrate the artistic diversity and urban vibrancy of Minneapolis and the Stevens Square-Loring Heights neighborhood. This year the festival will be taking place Saturday, May 31st (11am-7pm) and Sunday, June 1st (11am-5pm), and will be hosting a kick-off party and gallery show at Stevens Square Center for the Arts on Friday, May 30th (7pm-11pm).
Red Hot provides an ideal opportunity for artists of all mediums to showcase their work. This year the festival will host 75 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 is made possible, in part, by funds provided by the Metropolitan Regional Arts Council from an appropriation by the MN Legislature, COMPAS, and Plymouth Congregational Church
