ACW was thrilled to receive so many outstanding submissions for the Arts District Palette project.  Three jurors chose the following artists to have 12 works commissioned by the Huxley Apartments.  The lucky residents of this new apartment complex in Northeast Minneapolis will get to choose two pieces from this collection of local artists.  The art ranges from ceramic rattles to landscape paintings to collage to mixed media art.  There will certainly be something for everyone.  We are excited to introduce these artists to new art collectors that will be our forever fans! Judges:  Abby Ross, Sally Gibson, Mike Schardin.
