Step into the world of Artropolis, a two-part artist symposium at the Walker Art Center, where art is not just seen but experienced, boundaries dissolve, and new futures take shape. Over two nights in July and September, this symposium is a convergence of artistic minds—filmmakers, visual artists, musicians, and thought leaders—who dare to reimagine the urban landscape as a living, breathing canvas and celebrate our city’s unique art scene.
From immersive screenings and panel discussions to interactive installations and sonic landscapes, Artropolis transforms space into an incubator for radical ideas and collaboration. With programming developed by local Black and BIPOC collective The Guild, it is an invitation to witness artistic experimentation in real time, to engage in conversations that challenge conventions, and to imagine new ways of being together.
Gallery admission is free on Thursday nights, 5–9 pm. Save time and reserve your gallery admission tickets online.
