Gods & Monsters is coming THIS Friday and Saturday. And while the official annual Halloween/horror event has been running longer than anyone can account for… we did suddenly realize this is the TENTH ANNIVERSARY since OAC took it over. Yay. Here’s a treat:

Consider this a warning for how insane the coming Drop-In Deck show is going to be. While the show will be up until late October, it’s still first-come/first-serve if you want to purchase any of this art. Hope to see you at the opening.

OAC will be going all out again this Halloween season, with ALTR, Norseman, performances, and other witchery. Prepare your costumes and your love of the macabre and strange.

Great times were had at Paleo Show opening. We also host gallery hours after, if anyone wants a chance to see the show or purchase more art. Sadly, there won’t be anymore Dino-trivia or prizes. But if you’re the type to avoid crowds, this moment is for you to view it all in peace and quiet.

OAC's policy includes a ban on images generated via AI. After years of research and debate, we've solidified this policy and included it in our artist contract: NO IMAGERY GENERATED BY AI. The new contract language allows OAC to ban artists caught using AI imagery AT ANY TIME.

Otherworldly Arts Collective supports and celebrates creativity in our ever growing Twin Cities artist community. Opening ALTR Gallery over a year ago was a natural step in OAC's mission. With it, we can better serve artists with this space. ALTR will be available for rentals over the Summer.
