As we see our country in disarray, the democratic ideology in peril, and people harmed by aggression, it makes it more important than ever to quell the storm by creating ways for people to see and interact with the world using a wider scope. Creatives help to make the lens wider. Through movement, sound, and visual interaction, people utilize their senses and can see the world differently and more holistically. When given the opportunity to experience something new, our minds expand. Second Shift Studio Space of Saint Paul was created to foster expansion of ideas by supporting creatives. We truly believe that people are better when they can create or experience the creative process through others.

Join us in support of our communities and help to end hate bigotry and bias.

Second Shift is the vision of East Side residents Chris Larson and Kriss Zulkosky, who founded the space after noticing many artists in the Twin Cities being priced out of affordable studio space. They purchased an old linoleum shop on Payne Avenue in October of 2017, and have been working since, to transform it into a functional studio space storefront.
