4 Uptown Storefronts Included in City's Arts & Culture Vibrant Storefronts Program
The program offers a two-year opportunity for awardees to strengthen their business models while engaging the public through their art. By subsidizing up to $50,000 a year, for two years in rent in previously vacant storefronts, the initiative breathes new life into these spaces.
Each storefront will feature dynamic quarterly programming, transforming these once-empty spaces into vibrant hubs of creativity and community engagement. This transformation underscores the program’s commitment to turning vacancy into vibrancy in Minneapolis.
Arts and cultural organizations or creative businesses can apply by May 16, 2025.
Four Uptown properties are participating:
2922 Hennepin Ave. (Rainbow building)
1426 West Lake St. (Rainbow building)
