Exhibitions
SafeWord
An event focused on creating a safe environment for erotic artistic experimentation, performative sexual expression, honest but responsible conversations, and overall body positivity. All attendees will be observers, only. Engagement with the entertainment is only allowed where specific consent is expressed. All the subject matter presented will require tolerance and respect of the unfamiliar for artists and attendees alike to learn and grow beyond our society's mundane objectivism. SafeWord observers will be treated to two series of performances each night, along with a gallery of sensual and suggestive artworks from local artists, music, adult beverages, and light refreshments. Admittance is limited with only 300 tickets available; the sooner a ticket is purchased, the more affordable it will be. While this is a private event, privacy is not guaranteed as we are not willing to hide the existence of this event.
The Unicorn Art Show
Come one, come all. Once upon a time, the fairest lords and ladies of the Twin Cities gathered for one magical eve to celebrate the majestic beauty of the unicorn. The Unicorn Art Show has grown to include more than the Great Horned One.
Gods & Monsters
As the season turns from the glow of summer to the chill of fall, join us as we celebrate works of dark creativity. A visual collection which reflects the nightmares that haunt us from the shadows of our hopes and dreams. Horrors from the silver screen, monsters from ancient mythology, dark gods, and terrors of every shape and kind. Steel your soul, take a peek past the veil, and see what frightening visions stalk you from beyond. Witches, warlocks, midnight fairies, vampires, and all other creatures of the night welcome.
Modist Brewing Co, Rogue Citizen & Otherworldly Arts present
DROP IN Skate Deck Art Show
DROP IN, a big group exhibition celebrating skate culture and centered on skate decks as art, returns to Modist Brewing Co for 2024, opening August 23rd to the public, 6-11pm.
Well over 80 artists from various backgrounds working in different mediums converge on Modist Brewing Co in the North Loop of Minneapolis to pack the taproom gallery walls with illustrative, abstract, lowbrow, unexpected and experimental artwork – all available for purchase.
Modist Brewing called up Twin Cities artgang Rogue Citizen to curate the first DROP IN show in 2017: an impromptu, wild event that echoed the young brewery’s energy and the atmosphere surrounding the X-Games taking place in the city. Several years, trials, troubles, and a pandemic later, DROP IN returns following a successful 2023 update, with Otherworldly Arts Collective joining forces with Rogue Citizen to make it happen.
Everyone can expect some great music, beer, THC and nonalcoholic refreshments to accompany this sprawling collection of skate deck art at the DROP IN opening party: Friday, Aug 23, 6-11pm, at Modist Brewing Co, 505 N 3rd Street, Minneapolis.
DROP IN 2024 is sponsored by Cal Surf skate shop, which has generously provided skate decks for artists to utilize.
MiniARTure Show
MiniARTure is an art exhibition showcasing captivating small-scale art.

Miniature paintings must be no larger than 25 square inches with a subject no more than 1/6th actual size; however, artists are encouraged to explore even smaller scales. Get TINY! 3D work can include, but are not limited to, dioramas, sculpture, dollhouses, and models provided they are created entirely by the artists.
