Bio:
Michael Hoyt is a visual artist with national exhibition record in painting
and installation art. He grew up in Minnesota and received his BFA from the
Minneapolis College of Art and Design. Hoyt has received grants and awards
from the MN State Arts Board and the Jerome Foundation and has been a past
artist in residence at Roanoke College in VA.

As an Asian-American artist, Hoyt attempts to illuminate the hyphen, and
aspires to create work that represents the enormous richness, contradiction,
and vitality that defines the American experience, in order to stimulate
debate, raise awareness, and build bridges within and beyond community.

Hoyt is currently the Executive Director of the Minneapolis based Kulture
Klub Collaborative, an innovative arts organization that partners youth
experiencing homelessness with artists and artistic practice, bridging
survival with inspiration.
