About the Archive

The Rebel Loon Archive preserves and publishes art born out of civil unrest and community advocacy, focusing on issues relevant to Minnesota.

The Archive preserves primary sources before they disappear (for example, protest signs donated to us after No Kings 3 instead of recycling or otherwise destroying them).

The Archive will publicize these works through art books, museum exhibits, and a publicly accessible digital archive, so that these artworks can be appreciated and studied far into the future.

More than 400 artists so far have come together to contribute their work to the Archive. All art is used with explicit permission, and artists retain all rights to their work.

The Rebel Loon Archive is fiscally sponsored by Springboard for the Arts.
