Meet at Mia: Becoming Giants

  • Mia (Museumwide) 2400 3rd Avenue South Minneapolis, MN, 55404 (map)

From Minneapolis Institute of Art:

In honor of the ways creativity passes through generations, vinyl selector DJ JamEZ showcases the art of the record as a time-tested archive while DJ MxKenna’s musical stylings celebrate Black women with a classic hip hop/neo soul set. The evening culminates in an organic community forum in the “Giants” exhibition, where moderator Yonci Jameson invites local artists and community members to respond to the collection’s featured artists and reflect on their own creative journeys.

Mia has partnered with Public Functionary (PF) to curate a five-week series of Meet at Mia programs surrounding our special exhibition “Giants: Art from the Dean Collection of Swizz Beatz and Alicia Keys.” Following an opening program on March 20, each week correlates with a theme of the exhibition: Becoming Giants, On the Shoulders of Giants, Giant Conversations, and Giant Presence. Programs include music, film screenings, live performances, tours led by the PF Curatorial Cohort, and more.
