The Minneapolis Art lending Library affords Twin Cities community members the rare opportunity to borrow original works of art for two month periods, free of charge.
Every three months, the MALL is open to the public to come and browse our collection of over 110 original artworks, which may be checked out and enjoyed at home. Our collection features a changing selection of contemporary artwork, with a focus on work from Twin Cities artists. The selection includes work from printmakers, painters, photographers and sculptors. This service is completely free to all. After two months, borrowers return their piece, and are welcome to borrow again. Our aim is to provide exposure for artists, build ongoing support of the arts, and share the joy of art with all members of our community, regardless of financial standing.
