Animystics Opening Reception!

Join us Friday, April 25th from 7-10pm for the opening reception of our newest exhibition, Animystics! It's a show fueled by our continual reliance on animals for companionship, inspiration, and spiritual guidance throughout history!

In order to give back to our best friends and daily companions, Light Grey Art Lab will be donating a portion of the proceeds from Animystics to Feline Rescue Inc, Homeward Bound Dog Rescue, and the Animal Humane Society. These worthy organization's efforts provide humane animal care and help find hundreds of homes for animals in need.

Animystics is a massive show with over 100 participating artists. Mankind has always shared a special bond with animals, relying on creatures of all kinds for companionship, inspiration, and spiritual guidance. From the Roman idea of genius, to Egyptian deities, to familiars in European folklore, to Ojibwe totemism, to ancient Norse fylgja; as far back as history can remember, cultures from around the globe have always held a powerful connections to animals. For Animystics, artists were invited to explore, research, and share their own connections to animals, be it personal, historical, or mystical.

The opening reception will be a celebration of our favorite four-legged friends, and pets are welcome to attend! In addition to the awesome artwork on the walls, the opening reception will features a photo op for you and your pet, a hot dog station, prizes donated from Minnesota-based pet suppliers Chuck & Don's, a spirit animal quiz, and more! This event is sponsored by Yelp!

Remember, the opening reception is Friday, April 25th from 7-10 PM! We're located on the corner of Stevens Ave and 26th Street. Street parking is available on Stevens, 26th and 1st Ave.
