A limited edition hardcover fine art book featuring the collected works of 69 Twin Cities artists from five traveling sketchbooks. This beautiful hardcover book boasts 88 full color pages and features work made exclusively for the MPLSART Sketchbook Project.

The MPLSART Sketchbook Project was launched in Fall 2020 as a way to connect artists in the Twin Cities and give them a much needed financial boost. The project is a unique survey of the Twin Cities arts community during 2020. 69 artists contributed 120 pages of work to a series of five traveling sketchbooks.

MPLSART worked deliberately to capture a diverse slice of artists working in the Twin Cities. From hobbyists to internationally exhibiting artists, from McKnight Fellows to artists just starting their careers. The project features muralists, studio artists, street artists, graphic novelists, collage artists, Urban Sketchers, and more.
