MESS HALL ARTS | Create, Celebrate, and Get Messy!

Mess Hall Arts offers custom field trips for schools, community groups, girl scout troops, and more. Every experience at Mess Hall Arts is hands-on, process-driven, and designed to let your imagination run wild.


Our goal is to ensure each participant feels engaged, successful, and enriched no matter if they are an experienced artist or trying something new for the first time.

Our art experiences are:

  • Flexible and fully customizable to support a wide range of needs
  • Designed to be sensory-friendly and accessible
  • Grounded in a judgment-free, uplifting studio environment
  • Led by compassionate and experienced artists

Creative expression can have a profound impact on mental and emotional well-being. Participation in art activities has been shown to:

  • Reduce anxiety, stress, and depression
  • Increase self-esteem, especially in children and young adults
  • Enhance focus, fine motor skills, and cognitive development
  • Encourage imagination, self-expression, and emotional regulation
  • Support problem-solving and creative thinking skills
  • Foster a sense of community, pride, and accomplishment

We’re based in Hopkins, MN, and serve groups across the Twin Cities and surrounding suburbs. Sessions can be held in our vibrant, welcoming studio or we can bring the experience to your location.
