Red Wing Arts

Our Mission and Vision

Our mission is to build a vibrant community fueled by the arts. We enrich lives by connecting, celebrating, inspiring and leading through shared art experiences. Our vision is a community alive with creativity.

Beginning in 1952 as an interactive arts educational program, Red Wing Arts is the oldest arts organization in Red Wing. We are committed to building a community where arts and arts participation are a relevant and vital part of the city of Red Wing.

To do this, Red Wing Arts supports the many area artists in the region by providing them with exposure and visibility in our galleries and shop. It is our belief that a personal engagement in the creative process, the active exchange of ideas, and a commitment to the diversity of the arts are mainstays of our culture. An appreciation of artistic expression helps us to remember our past, energizes our present, and develops a strong faith in our future.
