The Walker Art Center is located in Minneapolis and it features a wide selection of gifting goods including apparel, ceramics, and pieces by Japanese label Delfonics. The diverse range draws in the help of artists from its local area, supporting the community. Most notably, the Walker Art Center recently introduced the 'Intangibles,' which is an innovative project that highlights digital mediums.
It is comprised of gifts that boast no physical form in any way -- this includes Snapchat photographs that are taken by famous artists from around the world or voice recordings that are specially created for customer's own voice mail. This service elevates the gifting standard to create souvenirs that last in a different way.
