About the sheds

719 N Ida Ave Tinworks is pleased to present a significant new work by artist Agnes Denes. Wheatfield—An Inspiration. The seed is in the ground. A groundbreaking, internationally recognized figure, and one lauded as one of the first ecological artists, Denes engages science, philosophy, math, linguistics, technology, engineering, urban planning, music, and poetry in visionary artworks that explore environmental issues and humanity’s impact on the planet.

810 E Davis St Raven Forge, longtime blacksmith and craftsman who uses hammers, anvils, and a forge to produce both traditional and contemporary ironwork. Come by and see a forging demonstration.

514 N Ida Ave Äsa Pape: Stop by for a Swedish pancake, made by a true Swede. If you have it, place $1 in the jar for the food bank. Välkomna!

326 N Broadway Ave Brandt Williams invites you to view the Eric Junker mural on the north side of his home, but asks you to view it from the Simkins south employee parking lot. This will be the lot right next to the home where Simkins ends and residences begin.

625 E Tamarack, next to the old train station The Big Red Bard and Yellow Caboose with Statue of Liberty Photo ops abound at this historic barn preserved by the north side’s avid antiques guy Bob Arnold. Enjoy the exterior of the site only, no interior access.

706 E Peach St Amy Hoitsma: She–shed Art Gallery. Check out one of the hidden treasures in the Northeast Arts District.

621 N Bozeman Ave Chris Shaida: A decahexagon! Bottle “bricks” held together with shredded back issues of the BoZone+dirt+cement! A culvert! A trapdoor!

329 N Broadway Ave Kristen Rainey: Energy-efficient ADU with rooftop garden, solar panels, rainwater catchment, composting, and a grove of aspens. This is the back half of the property (tall wooden structure in the backyard – access from Fridley St)

314 N Black Ave Julie and Peter Belschwender: Updated old Northside home with a modern look and old-style charm. Shed/office adorn the back of the property with many drought reistant plants to round out this gem.
