Midway Contemporary Art is a non-profit arts organization located in Minneapolis, Minnesota. Its gallery and research library in the Marcy Homes neighborhood is free and open to the public.

History

Midway Contemporary Art was founded in January 2001 by John Ballinger and John Rasmussen. Part of its mission is to promote emerging and underrepresented artists.[1] Rasmussen is the current Executive Director.

Originally located in Saint Paul's Midway neighborhood, the gallery moved to the Marcy Homes neighborhood in January 2006.[2] Midway Contemporary started the Midway Contemporary Art Library in 2007.[3] The gallery hosts five exhibitions during the year in addition to film screenings and lectures.

Midway Contemporary Art is funded through public and private foundations, individuals, and governmental support. The organization also hosts two annual fundraiser events.[4] During the annual Monster Drawing Rally fundraiser, dozens of local artists gather to produce drawings which are sold upon completion.[5]

Curator Chris Sharp of Mexico City-based project space Lulu named Midway Contemporary among his inspirations, citing its consistent quality and contributions to the local and international scenes.[6]
