Behind The Scenesters: Andy Sturdevant

Andy Sturdevant is a jack-of-all-trades on the Twin Cities arts scene. As an Artists Resources Manager at Springboard for the Arts, Sturdevant assists creatives of musical, literary, and visual persuasions to make living the dream a reality.

Sturdevant is instantly recognizable by his fiery beard and retro spectacles. You’re likely to see him out and about in South Minneapolis, scoping out the Art Shanties, looking dapper at gallery openings, or onstage in the monthly Salon Saloon variety show. In addition to regular missives at MinnPost, Sturdevant has penned pieces for Rain Taxi, Mpls. St. Paul Magazine, heavytable.com, and Walker Art Center publications.
