About Meg Frank

Meg Frank is a multidisciplinary artist, living and working in New York City. Originally from Minnesota, Frank has spent the last decade working to combine painting, sewing, and weaving in work that examines the psychological spaces that surround our homes, community, and dreams. Their current body of work explores how we use technology to stay connected to those we love and how that technology shapes those connections. Their art is held privately and publicly across the United States and Europe and can be found at megfrank.com.

About the Residency

For their residency in Lanesboro, Meg will create mixed media art quilts that document Lanesboro citizens and places they cherish; as well as hosting public art education classes on quilting, drawing, and painting. Once completed, the quilts would be donated to the community for display and educational use. Learn more about Meg’s Residency here.
