it must be spring May 1

Because suddenly, everyone in Minnesota wants to do, something.

Here’s a list of just some of the events that I know are happening tomorrow, May 2nd:

  • St. Paul Craftstravaganza – State Fairgrounds Fine Arts Building- you know me and craft sales, I’m definitely going to try to hit this.
  • Living Green Expo – State Fairgrounds Grandstand Building – admittedly, this runs through Sunday as well but if it makes sense to combine it and the craft sale into one trip, especially since this is all about being environmental and stuff.
  • Free Comic Book Day – The Source, Big Brain, etc – Comic books, first one’s free… The Source usually has a lot of fun with this day (I seem to remember cake and costumes), and if you are going to the fairgrounds for Craftstravaganza and Living Green, you might as well go the extra half mile up Snelling and hang with the nerds.
  • Art in Bloom – Minneapolis Institute of Art – On now through Sunday, and exhibition of floral arrangement inspired by pieces in the museum’s collection.  Sounds interesting, I’ll probably skip it this year.

The weather looks like it will be decent this weekend… so whatever you plan on doing… GO OUTSIDE!

    Thank you for this! I’ve always wanted to go to Art in Bloom. I’m glad for the reminder.

    Thanks again for coming out on Saturday! I hope you slept well :) Also, did you get on the highway with your bike this weekend?
