Squirrel Haus Arts owner Donna Lewis-Jones ’85, whose working artist name is Spidey Meyer, has a new chapter starting this year. After 10 successful years of art, performance, and events, Squirrel Haus Arts has transitioned to a front gallery space for artists in the community to showcase their work.

"We are proud of our accomplishment, serving not only the visual and performance art community, but also non-profits, schools, and community groups. It was my joy to have met with every client who reserved Squirrel Haus Arts. You taught me so much about the arts and social issues facing our community. What’s next? We have new ideas and projects to explore. I can assure you we are not done with our commitment to the art, community, and our greater longfellow neighborhood."

Land Acknowledgement

The Minneapolis College of Art and Design (MCAD) acknowledges it is located on traditional, ancestral, and contemporary lands of Indigenous people. This is the ancestral homeland of the Dakota and Ojibwe people, who were forcibly exiled from the land because of aggressive and persistent settler colonialism. We recognize that this place has a complex and layered history. As a community dedicated to creativity, MCAD is committed to ongoing efforts to support and advocate for American Indian Nations and peoples.
