THE ARTISAN ALLIANCE

Seasonal events & gatherings for Minneapolis photographers.
Opportunities to meet off the screen.
Connect. Inspire. Create. Together.

  • Spring Food & Cocktail Hour

    Every season we gather, we create a healthy balance of work and play; a time to push ourselves, and a time to take a step back and simply connect and relate to others in the same industry as us.

    Ultimately, to feel less alone in this entrepreneurial journey that we are on.

    If you’ve been feeling alone and craving connection, come gather with us for food, cocktails, & good company at a delicious spot in Uptown with the best margs.

  • Spring Coffee Social Hour

    Come ready to connect with other like-minded creates and chat about combating burnout together!

    Meetups like these are great spaces to feel understood and seen. You'll quickly find that we all face similar frustrations and challenges on this creative journey. We’ll have a helpful discussion about many ideas and tips that can renew our love for photography and build each other up along the way.

  • Spring Photo Walk + Trolley Ride

    Artisan Alliance’s second-ever photo walk!

    The first was SO much fun. We’ve been dying to do another one, so here you go!

    This time we will be exploring the historic streets of Stillwater, MN. Before the walk we will be riding the local trolley for some extra fun photos and not to mention, it’s a tour, so we’ll learn a thing or two about Stillwater before the shooting begins.

    Dinner after will be optional!

    Tuesday, May 28th
    Stillwater, MN
    2pm-5pm
    $15 (to cover cost of pre-purchased trolley ticket)

    Tours starts promptly at 2pm, so make sure you arrive a little earlier to park.

    Can’t wait for this one!
