We make heavy art with the Southside Minneapolis community.

 

We are a group of South Minneapolis artists, welders, engineers, builders, neighbors, cooks, and creators who collaborate to create interactive art spectacles for and by the community.  We began way back in 2006 in the shop at 3100 Portland where we are still based.  Our project began as a pedal-powered ice-fishing Shanty.  It has now evolved into a human and machine powered train of epic proportions.

Why not?
