Prøve Gallery is a contemporary and experimental art gallery located in downtown Duluth on traditional, ancestral, and contemporary lands of Indigenous peoples. We are a cultural organization dedicated to the role of art exhibition as a conduit of powerful ideas and diverse viewpoints.

We are an all-volunteer 501(c)3 arts organization funded by community donations, regional and state grants, passion, sweat, and tears.

Our mission is to foster a greater appreciation of the contemporary arts, to bridge cultures, create and expand community, and provide cultural exchange, networking opportunities, and educational outreach through regular interaction with the contemporary arts.

It is the goal of Prøve Gallery to present regular gallery shows, musical performances, and spoken-word, experimental & community events; collaborate with like-minded artists and arts organizations; and provide an art retail environment.

Note: we are currently not taking exhibition proposals. However, our board respectfully reviews each submission. Click for more information on how to submit a proposal for review.

Operating support is made possible in part by the voters of Minnesota through a grant from the Arrowhead Regional Arts Council, thanks to a legislative appropriation from the arts and cultural heritage fund.
