SUMMARY:Facing the Fire: A Public Art Installation
DESCRIPTION:“Facing the Fire” is an ongoing public art project\, devised by Minneapolis artist Paul Herwig\, to reflect on the murder of George Floyd\, police brutality\, and the civil unrest of 2020. Originally presented in the fall of 2022 on Lake Street East\, east of Hiawatha Avenue in the Longfellow Neighborhood of Minneapolis\, “Facing the Fire” was composed of seven performances of projection art and sound conducted on abandoned and damaged properties all along Lake Street. \nLocal music and sound artist Queen Drea participated in two of those performances\, and is the composer and curator of the music in this iteration of Facing the Fire. It was at that first performance here at the ruins of the former 3rd Precinct where Paul met Chris Mozena\, board member of Longfellow Rising\, who then pitched the idea of remounting Facing the Fire\, with a deeper focus on social justice\, and the municipal neglect of the property\, which is a persistent reminder of the horrible events of that summer and an ever-present eyesore that magnifies the City’s longstanding inability to address the community’s needs.\n\nThe projection art in Facing the Fire is composed of hundreds of images sourced from local and international media\, street art from around the nation\, graphs whose statistics chart the violence perpetrated onto local communities by outside radical fascist groups\, archival images from the history of civil unrest along last Street since the 1900’s\, and many recent images of the destroyed buildings in the neighborhood\, images of citizens protesting during the summer of 2020\, and children\, for whom we need to build a better future. \nThis temporary art installation of projection and sound will be installed and run in a loop for 2 hours between 8pm and 10pm each evening twice weekly in April starting Friday April 7th (with an additional performance on Tuesday April 11th). That is: April 7-11-13-14-20-21-27-29. \nFor more information about Paul Herwig (the artist) can be found at: https://www.futureprojections.net/facing-the-fire.html. For more information about Longfellow Rising\, contact LR Board Chair: Jamie Schwesnedl at jamie@moonpalacebooks.com \nPaul is immensely grateful for the support of Longfellow Rising’s funding of this project. \n*Images of the projection art to be projected on the property are courtesy of artist Paul Herwig.

SUMMARY:Earth Day River Clean Up with Friends of the Mississippi River

People come from throughout the local river corridor\, neighborhoods and metro area – individuals\, families\, small church\, corporate and student or scout groups – to celebrate Earth Day and contribute to the health and vitality of the Mississippi River. All are welcome! This is a family-friendly event providing an excellent opportunity to get outside and work together to help improve this treasured area. We’ve returned to this site year after year and have noticed a dramatic improvement to the area thanks to dedicated volunteers like you! \nTo participate\, show up at 9:30 a.m. at either location (East 36th Street & West River Parkway or East 44th Street & West River Parkway) to sign in with FMR staff. We’ll provide all the supplies\, but feel free to wear your own gloves if you have them. Sturdy shoes and dressing in layers for the weather are strongly suggested. There will pizza from Parkway Pizza and snacks for those volunteering. \nOur two locations for this cleanup are paved parking lots\, with easy access to paved and unpaved trails. Volunteers are encouraged to spread out and work wherever they feel comfortable. Paths are shared by walkers and bikers\, but volunteers can spend their entire cleanup on flat\, paved trails. Volunteers also have the option to stick to sidewalks and city streets. \n\n\n\n\n\n\nAdvance registration for this event is not required for individuals or for groups of 10 or fewer. \nIf you have a group of 10-20 people\, please contact FMR’s Volunteer & Outreach Coordinator at volunteer@fmr.org(link sends e-mail) or 651.222.2193 x27. We’ll work with you to determine which cleanup site is a better fit for your group. \nFor groups of 20 or more\, please contact Kristina Anderson\, kanderson@minneapolisparks.org(link sends e-mail) to be assigned a location that will better fit your group size. \nThis event is supported by the Longfellow Community Council; Longfellow area residents are encouraged to attend.

SUMMARY:Seward Longfellow Restorative Justice Fundraising Concert with Maria Isa
DESCRIPTION:Seward Longfellow Restorative Justice is hosting a fundraiser with a performance by Maria Isa & the Drums at Hook and Ladder (3010 Minnehaha Ave S.\, Minneapolis\, MN 55406) on Thursday\, May 4th. This concert will launch the Hook and Ladder’s annual\, award-winning Under the Canopy series.  \nThis outdoor concert is 21+ and tickets are $25 in advance or $35 at the door. Proceeds from ticket sales will benefit SLRJ. There will be a food truck on site for the duration of the show and free ice cream provided by Minnehaha Scoop.  \nSeward Longfellow Restorative Justice was founded by neighborhood residents in 2004 to work with youth cited for breaking the law in order to help them learn from their mistakes and make amends. SLRJ uses a restorative conference process that includes preparation with both parties and culminates in a conversation about what happened\, how it caused harm\, and the creation of a plan to “make things right”. SLRJ has also contributed to many important legal system reforms to transform how mistakes by youth are treated\, that is\, to move away from a punishment model to one that treats “youthful behavior” as opportunities for learning and making amends.  \nSLRJ is experiencing an increase in requests from community members who are seeking alternatives to the police and legal system response to harm and crime. Proceeds from the concert will allow SLRJ to continue to offer resources and support to each person requesting a restorative process and to continue to advocate for legal system changes including the recently introduced bill in the MN House which would increase RJ options for youth statewide.   \nMaria Isa Perez-Hedges is a Boricua singer\, songwriter\, actress\, rapper\, activist\, youth worker and international recording artist. She has performed alongside and opened for artists such as The Roots\, Bad Bunny\, Common\, Moby\, Bomba Estereo\, Sheila E\, Kendrick Lamar\, Wu Tang Clan\, Las Cafeteras\, Atmosphere\, Pedrito Martinez\, and many more. She is the founder\, producer\, and co-host for Latina Theory: Spanglish Podcast. She is also a MN State Representative for District 65B.  \nFor more information or to donate directly to SLRJ on their website\, visit slrj.org.  \nThe Hook and Ladder Under the Canopy Series is supported by: Jack Daniels\, Summit Brewing\, Slane Irish Whiskey\, KFAI – Fresh Air Community Radio\, Mpls / St Paul Magazine\, Nobool Presents\, Arbeiter Brewing\, Moon Palace Books\, The Hub Bike Co-Op\, The Hive Realty\, Lake Street Council\, & The MN State Arts Board \nAdditional support for this event provided by Seward Co-op.

SUMMARY:The Seward Garden Tour
DESCRIPTION:Explore the Hidden Oasis: Discover 11 Urban Gardens in Minneapolis’ Historic Seward Neighborhood!\nPresented by TruStone Financial \nSeward Neighborhood\, Minneapolis\, Minnesota – June 22nd\, 2023\, 6-8 pm \nStep into a world of enchantment as the Seward Garden Tour invites you to witness the beauty and care of 11 urban gardens in the heart of Minneapolis’ cherished and historic Seward Neighborhood. Nestled near the University of Minnesota campus\, this event grants you exclusive access to delightful Seward gardens. Whether you’re an experienced gardener seeking fresh inspiration or simply an admirer of nature’s wonders\, be prepared to revel in the fruits of others’ labor. To conclude the evening\, guests are invited to indulge in a garden party with treats\, refreshments and a raffle prize. \nFor $15 per ticket ($20 if purchased on the day of the event)\, immerse yourself in a journey through these urban gardens. Your ticket not only grants you access to the gardens but also invites you to the after-party\, complete with refreshments and the chance to win prizes through our fun raffle! \nThe garden tours will take place from 6 to 8 p.m.\, followed by the after-party at 8 p.m. \nBy participating in the Seward Garden Tour\, you are supporting the invaluable efforts of the Seward Neighborhood Group\, whose tireless work contributes to the betterment of our community. \nUpon ticket will-call pick-up at Jack’s Hardware and Farm Supply\, you will receive a detailed map to guide you through the tour. \nAccording to Pat Rosaves\, Chair of the Seward Garden Tour\, the gardens featured in the 2023 edition are nothing short of delightful. “This is a fun garden tour – not put together by professional garden designers costing tons of money.  Rather they are charming individual gardens that give visitors the feeling that they could put together interesting gardens too.  Each of these eclectic gardens is unique and often the gardener has spent many years developing their own style and learning what works in their yard.  They are happy to share the knowledge they have acquired. The Garden Tour not only showcases our neighborhood’s undeniable charm but also offers an opportunity to rally behind the invaluable work of the Seward Neighborhood Group.”   \nSeward\, one of Minneapolis’ oldest neighborhoods\, exudes a unique blend of small-town charm and big-city vibrance. Immerse yourself in a tapestry of vibrant arts\, exceptional dining experiences\, and endless entertainment options. Nestled beside the breathtaking Mississippi River\, adorned with miles of picturesque bike trails\, Seward has become a sought-after destination for those seeking a scenic escape\, whether by bike\, scooter\, or a leisurely stroll from Downtown. \nFor more information\, please reach out directly to Pat Rosaves at patrosaves@live.com. \nJoin us on a botanical adventure in the heart of the city! \nThis event is sponsored by the Seward Neighborhood Group\, Xcel Energy\, and Seward Co-op. \n  \n  \nTHIS EVENT IS SOLD OUT!!

They want all communities to feel the benefits of being out in natural green spaces in our various Twin City neighborhoods and beyond. Urban Bird Collective is passionate about birdwatching and the protection of the environment. They are here to support you in developing your birding skills while we continue to improve our own. \nThe first 15 people who arrive receive either a free birding book or a pair of binoculars! \nAny questions about the bird walks\, email jasmine@sng.org. This event is organized by LCC and made possible by the Hennepin County Green Partners Grant.
