We’re Twin Cities Collage Collective! We strive to provide an inclusive, safe space for folks at all levels of creative ability to learn about collage, connect with others, and find resources.
Our group got started in 2017 when allison anne started planning local collage meetups in Minneapolis/Saint Paul, Minnesota. In 2018, we became a full-fledged community group as more folks started getting involved. In 2025, we’re moving away from membership and towards a decentralized model for our group that allows for more participation from a wider array of artists who want to be involved.
We publish work by collage & mixed media artists, with a particular focus on representing those working in our home community of Minnesota.
Check out North Star Collage, our ongoing series of anthologies featuring Minnesota-based artists. North Star Collage 3 will be published in November 2024 and is currently available for preorder. The book features work from over 120 artists working with collage and mixed media in Minnesota!

We also organize collage meetups and gatherings in the Twin Cities area.
These events are generally free and open to the public, with all materials supplied (though you’re welcome to bring your own)! Currently, we have quarterly gatherings at Fresh Eye Gallery in Minneapolis. Events are generally announced through Instagram and our newsletter.
