Twin Cities Writer & Artist Services Directory

Want to hire local artists but not sure where to start? With listings by 50 Twin Cities artists and writers, this directory de-mystifies the process and price of hiring local talent. Learn skills, like how to operate a sewing machine, or how to stilt walk. Hire entertainers for your next party, like a live caricaturist. This directory is a practical resource (hire a handyperson), a professional resource (find a publicist), and an imaginative resource (hire a Play Consultant). The impact of investing in a service-based local arts economy is multifold: it sustains artists with basic income that helps them survive, thrive, and make their work. It creates art experiences that are deeply relational. It fosters art outside of museums, galleries, and institutions. It imagines ways for artists to interact with a general audience that are practical, ethical, interesting, and fun.
