A limited edition hardcover fine art book featuring the collected works of 70 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 is a unique survey of the Twin Cities visual arts community during another challenging year. Following the success of the 2020 Sketchbook Project, which was started as a way to connect and support artists during the pandemic, this second iteration brings together a whole new cohort of amazing Twin Cities artists. Throughout 2021, 70 local artists contributed 120 original works to a series of five traveling sketchbooks. These five sketchbooks have been compiled into one limited edition book.

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.
