Apply for the 2026 Sculpture Walk
Share your sculpture with our community!
Each year, Red Wing’s historic downtown becomes an open-air gallery - a place where creativity meets community, and art is woven into our daily lives. We invite artists to submit proposals for our 2026–2027 Red Wing Sculpture Walk, a year-long rotating exhibition featuring 7 temporary sculptures installed in Spring 2026.
Selected by a peer review panel of local community members, participating artists will have their work displayed in a setting visited by thousands each year. All sculptures are available for purchase.
With more than 30 permanent public artworks already enlivening our streets, the Art in the Heart of Red Wing program reflects our city’s commitment to creativity and community connection.
This program is made possible through the partnership of Red Wing Arts, the City of Red Wing’s Arts & Culture Commission, generous local supporters, and by the voters of Minnesota through a grant from the Southeastern Minnesota Arts Council thanks to a legislative appropriation from the arts & cultural heritage fund.
All Creatives Welcome!

Teaching Artists - Come Teach with Us!
At our Red Wing Arts Clay & Creative Center, located in Red Wing, Minnesota, we seek unique approaches, and skill sets that provide a rich learning experience for our participants. Our audience ranges from beginners to intermediate skill levels in various mediums, including clay. Typically, our guest teaching artists hold workshops on the weekends, and we are open to other times.
The maximum number of participants is approximately 20, depending on the art medium. We strive to have an intimate and focused learning environment. Additionally, we are looking for teaching artists who are interested in marketing these workshops to their current audience, helping to broaden our community of artists and enthusiasts.
