Nothing quite compares to a night spent at the museum admiring world-class art, connecting with your community and celebrating the work of talented living artists. The opening celebration for Giants: Art from the Dean Collection of Swizz Beats and Alicia Keys commemorated the powerful exhibit with an after-hours party at the Minneapolis Institute of Art (Mia). The sold-out soiree began with a warm welcome from the evening’s special guests, superstar duo Alicia Keys and Swizz Beatz, who shared their passion, underscoring the importance of this show, Minneapolis’s vibrant arts community and uplifting Black artists. Partygoers enjoyed an exclusive first look at the Dean Collection along with craft cocktails and musical stylings from local powerhouse ensemble Sounds of Blackness. The spirit of the evening perfectly mirrored the exhibition itself — dynamic, lively and buzzing with inspiration. Step inside the party, below.
