Programs at A House Unbuilt
Where artists and communities meet through creative exploration, dialogue, and place-based inquiry.
A House Unbuilt hosts a growing set of programs that support artists, deepen community engagement, and expand access to creative practice in the St. Croix River Valley. Our programs emphasize whole-body listening, interdisciplinary experimentation, and public participation—bringing art into conversation with environment, water, and daily life.
