MINO Art Space & Agency

MINO is a progressive art and community space located in Antwerp, dedicated to fostering the growth of emerging artists and cultural leaders. The organization emphasizes the importance of establishing connections and encouraging creativity through a focus on community engagement, social impact, and cultural entrepreneurship. MINO provides resources such as coaching, personalized residencies, and exhibition opportunities to help artists develop their practices in a supportive environment. One of MINO's key initiatives is the "Impact Fund," which aims to support the creative journeys of artists while promoting a culturally rich ecosystem. The fund is designed to empower emerging talents, allowing them to access mentorships from established international artists and valuable studio spaces. Donations to the fund are welcomed and are tax-deductible, underscoring the organization's commitment to independence in a field that often relies heavily on public subsidization. Additionally, MINO values collaboration and invites partnerships with like-minded individuals and organizations that align with its mission. This could involve artists, community members, or corporate partners who wish to contribute to MINO's objective of enhancing community pathways and fostering meaningful cultural dialogues. Upcoming events at MINO include the "MINO Lab Residency" scheduled from November 17, 2025, to May 31, 2026, along with the "Tender Ground" exhibition, which took place from October 25 to December 7, 2025. This inaugural group exhibition featured artists whose work reflects themes of connection, care, and dialogue, highlighting the organization's commitment to promoting a diverse and inclusive artistic landscape. Operating from Minderbroedersrui 55, Antwerp, MINO is open Thursday through Saturday from 1 PM to 6 PM, providing a platform for both artists and the community to come together in a space that prioritizes creativity and collaboration.
