Posters for Parks
Artwork inspired by Minneapolis Parks
Since 2016, Posters for Parks has featured limited-edition posters created by local artists and designers who are inspired by Minneapolis parks. 50% of all profits from the show are donated to protect and preserve the award-winning Minneapolis park system, with the other 50% going directly to the artists.
Showcasing the Twin Cities creative community
The event highlights the role of art in making the world a better place. Each year, more than 150 people apply to be in the show. A jury chooses up to 45 artists to create original posters for purchase.
The one day, pop-up gallery is staged at the Minnehaha Regional Park pavilion every October. The online sale of all remaining posters takes place the following week at PostersforParks.org.
This event is a joint venture of LoveMplsParks and the Minneapolis Parks Foundation.
