All My Relations Gallery

Lol pry look like a tourist. But here's pics. I took visiting yesterday. I loved the star Wars (#IndigenousStyle) ✊🏽🤍🖤❤💛🦅

One of the best exhibits I have seen in a while. Loved the work of the artist featured, Frank Buffalo Hyde. The staff was so friendly and helpful. Enter through the Powwow Grounds Coffee Shop to access the gallery.

Visiting this gallery for the first time to watch the phenomenal band The Black Widows play during “Arikara Proper,” a solo exhibition by J. White. Featuring live music from local band Black Widows, and food courtesy of Trickster Tacos. What a fabulous afternoon! I will return.

The gallery is very organized and welcoming. The little cafe attached adds to the charm. Representation matters and the gallery does a fantastic job showcasing Indigenous artists and voices.

Oh my goodness, I love this gallery. The staff are SO kind and dedicated to their customers and community. The art featured is raw and authentic, truly embodying the spirit of Native people everywhere. I'm so happy that this gallery is exclusively giving Native people a voice, it is especially needed for that community. Also, the cafe next to the gallery is very homey and welcoming. Good food, too!

Love the coffee selection and I highly recommend the blueberry muffin

What an important addition to the Minneapolis art scene. Having an indigenous gallery in this city really makes a difference. This is so evident from just the gallery reviews. My direct experience of the current show was quite impactful. It focuses on the loss of a native family in Canada that lost their young adult son in an automobile accident. It explores the unexpected loss of a loved one from different points of view, including story skirts, moccasins, tobacco bags and other artworks. The grieving artistic family left a tribute to their son. It stimulated me to talk with my adult son about the prospect of me dying before his mother. This felt important.

It's hard for an urban Indian to move to a new city. When I moved here from Seattle I felt very lonely despite the large Ojibwe population here. Whenever I feel homesick and I don't have time to go back to Seattle or up to Manitoba I make my way over to all my relations gallery to view beautiful art in talk to the amazing people in the coffee shop. I'm a little introverted so for me this is the perfect place to just feel home in the city's. It is my favorite gallery in town. And I have bought several prints from here happily knowing the money goes to support this organization that supports so many native artists.

I was looking for a coffee shop as I had a canceled meeting in the area. I am not familiar with this neighborhood so I just asked Yelp and it showed me Pow Wow Grounds. As I pulled into the parking lot, I saw that there was also a gallery in the same lot. I was magnetized by this large center piece of art and walked into the gallery. Wow. What history! This is such a beautiful gallery, the pieces curated tell a rich story of people whose land we are settlers and who are often silenced. I was deeply moved and would return to it again and again.

I just love this gallery. 1. It's a window in to contemporary Native American art and culture. 2. Always well curated. 3. The art teaches me about Native American culture and experiences. 4. The gallery is centered around the community. 5. It's convenient and accessible. I went to the Bring Her Home exhibit and was so moved with the very first painting I saw as I walked through the doors, "Stolen Daughter of Turtle Island" by Avis Charley. An oil on canvas painting of their mom after she left the reservation in North Dakota for LA in 1970. Their mom died tragically in Long Beach 20 years later. The painting was dedicated to the girls and women like her, that left their reservation for the city. The entire exhibit was insightful, but this painting in particular was really breathtaking.

Great little gallery showcasing local American Indian artists! There's a mix of prints, photography, sculpture, and other forms, each with a little statement from the artist. The gallery is run by a nonprofit community development organization, and doubles as an event space, so when we arrived we had to wait a bit until a lunchtime meeting wrapped up. There's a cute coffee shop adjacent to the gallery space, also with art on the walls, so we didn't mind at all. Definitely check out All My Relations if you need an art fix but don't have the time or patience for a full museum, or if you're interested in American Indian art!

In the land of 10,000 local art galleries, throw in another in this very diverse neighborhood known as Phillips. After you're done strolling and pondering, you can unwind and pull out that book in hand at Pow Wow Coffee shop too. Small and very homey type of art gallery, it showcases strictly contemporary Native arts from around the country. No exhibits of the horrors of meat-processing plants or the atrocities of war. But what most of the arts will have you analyzing are the emotions of relocation, being forcibly driven out, the broken treaties, the lies and the historical distress of the wrong doings of the past that exist to this day. If you have an afternoon or even few hours to kill, you will not regret coming here. *Admission is always free and open to the public.
