BOLD Launch 2026 | Portraits with Sanyu Creative

IIDA and  MSP NOMA are thrilled to collaborate with  Hennepin Made and Patricia Mutebi of Sanyu Creative to bring BOLD’s first event of 2026! Centering and connecting with creatives in our industry gives even more meaning to the work we do and the people we design alongside.

We’ll hear from the owner of Hennepin Made about local collaborations, followed by a tour of their glassblowing studio. Afterward, we’ll enjoy a social mixer, and Owner-Founder Patricia Mutebi of Sanyu Creative takes personal headshot portraits for attendees.

Patricia is a photographer with a one-of-a-kind perspective shaped by her background in architecture. Trained to see light, space, and composition, she brings that same intentional eye to every portrait she creates. Her passion for photographing people and the stories they carry led her to explore photography on a deeper level, and that curiosity continues to grow. She is currently developing her first body of work, Threads of Us, a project exploring culture and identity that she is preparing to exhibit. Her work is a reminder that the most compelling images are the ones that make you feel seen.  To learn more, visit www.patriciamutebi.studio.
