The 2008 MCAD Annual Art Sale has come to a close. Thanks to everyone who made this year's event such a rousing success. We can't wait to see you at our next sale on Friday, Nov. 20 and Saturday, Nov. 21, 2009! Until then, check out the MCAD Art Sale set at Flickr for pictures from the 2008 sale.
Each year, we open our doors to thousands of serious art patrons and creative, curious shoppers from across the Twin Cities and all over the Midwest, offering the opportunity to choose from thousands of works by our gifted students and recent alumni over the course of two fun, fast-paced days. From paintings, prints and photographs to sculpture, furniture, toys, clothing, jewelry, accessories and more, each purchase directly supports the up-and-coming artist who created the work.
The MCAD Annual Art Sale has gained a tremendous reputation as the metro's top destination for affordable, appreciable artwork by leading-edge artists who are creating not only what's new, but also what's next, with praise and exposure pouring in from the Star Tribune, Mpls.St.Paul, Minnesota Monthly, METRO, City Pages and KARE 11. Check out what they're saying about the sale.
Our 10th anniversary sale in 2007 offered more than 10,000 works by 400 artists. Be sure to make this extraordinary event an annual tradition!
