Midwest Mixed is a group of Twin Cities community members and friends all dedicated to making space for courageous conversations about race and other measures of identity. They approach their work using creative and fine art to express what words cannot. The goal of MWM is not to divide, but to provide safer spaces to move deeply into our authentic selves. They are hosting their biennial conference in Minneapolis this weekend, July 12-14!

Tall Paul
