CLUES gallery and arts programming uplift Latino art and culture in Minnesota
Located at our headquarters on the East Side of Saint Paul, the CLUES Latino Art Gallery is the only permanent nonprofit Latino-focused art gallery in the state of Minnesota.
Through exhibitions and events, we uplift the diversity of Latino voices, change narratives and bring community together to celebrate our cultural heritage.
The gallery is located next to our lobby and is free and open to the public during regular business hours.
Additionally, we are open extra hours for exhibit events.
Closed holidays. Closed in between exhibits for installation.

Our motto “la cultura cura” (culture heals), highlights how art and culture are at the core of our diverse Latino identities. Our Latino Arts and Culture Initiatives elevate and amplify our cultural richness, promote healing and wellbeing, and define “Latinidad” in all its diversity.
CLUES creates welcoming environments for artistic and cultural expression, fosters community dialogue, develops and strengthens relationships amongst individuals and families and passes on our traditions to younger generations.
We define ourselves for ourselves – exploring the diversity of our community, where we came from and where we are going. Through the arts, we amplify narratives that provide a sense of belonging and power. Our authentic stories provide support to marginalized members of our community as they overcome fear and isolation.
By bringing people together through the arts, we use storytelling to build Latino leaders for systems change. Art, cultural expression and folk traditions are our tools as we promote racial equity, create welcoming communities, improve health and wellness and increase upward socio-economic mobility for Latinos in Minnesota.
