Connecting Local Artists With Our Community

The Twin Rivers Arts Festival (formerly the GSR Fine Arts Festival) celebrates the fine arts in the greater Mankato area. We’re committed to creating an outlet for professional artists to connect with the community. 70+ visual artists, authors and musicians present their work at a live show traditionally held on the weekend after Thanksgiving. You can also connect year-round at ShopART Midwest—our online gallery.

70+ Creatives

Potters, painters, jewelers, photographers, glass, fiber, leather workers, authors, musicians plus many, many more. There is something for everyone.

Shop Small Saturday

We’re excited to partner with the Shop Small movement in Greater Mankato focused on supporting local businesses. It’s the perfect fit for our artists.
