Springing Forward into Art
A virtual fundraiser to support MCFTA
April 10 – April 24
Springing Forward into Art offers an online gallery of art and fine craft, sold to benefit the MInnetonka Center for the Arts, in a variety of media, styles, and price points.
Items will be available online for bidding and purchase. You can view the artwork online, or in-person by appointment. Call 952-473-7361 ext. 160 to schedule your visit Monday-Friday from 10:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. (Masks and social distancing required.)
You can view the artwork online, or in-person by appointment.
- The sale includes more than 75 works. A few extra-special pieces will be auctioned off to the highest bidder. Bidding begins below established gallery prices.
- Most pieces are done by Art Center instructors and exhibitors, past and present. Some, like the Bastiansen drawings, were created especially for us!
- All but a handful of items were donated. Every dollar you spend on donated items fully supports the Art Center.
- Artwork can be shipped anywhere in the continental US (shipping is extra).
- Items can be picked up by appointment upon purchase. No need to wait until the end of the sale unless you are bidding on an auction item. All auction items have a “Buy It Now” price.
- We are partnering with GiveSmart for safe, secure, and easy online transactions!

Why a virtual fundraiser now?
This past year has been a difficult and extremely challenging time for the Art Center. Unlike a number of our peers, we have survived — thanks to the support of our members and friends — and are looking forward to re-opening our doors just as soon as it is safe. We need this sale to help cover our expenses for just a few more months until on-site classes resume. Many of our closest friends have stepped up with donations of extraordinary art that we can offer to you at special prices.
