Five to Ten on Hennepin
September 22, 2016 @ 5:00 pm - 10:00 pm
An event every week that begins at 5:00 pm on Thursday, repeating until December 22, 2016

Hennepin Theatre Trust, Southwest Airlines Co. and Project for Public Spaces (PPS) are joining together to create and activate public spaces in the WeDo™ MPLS Cultural District.
The 5 to 10 on Hennepin project will reimagine a five-block stretch of Hennepin Avenue between 5th and 10th streets as a vibrant destination for everyone to enjoy, activating one block at a time beginning August 18 through December 22.
Southwest Airlines’ Heart of the Community program awarded the Trust with a $200,000 grant to bring 5 to 10 on Hennepin to life. PPS, a nonprofit pioneer in the global placemaking movement, will provide technical assistance.
Each week on Thursdays, the Trust is giving one block a fun “creative makeover” from 5 p.m. to 10 p.m. Sidewalks and surface parking lots come to life, offering assembled curiosities, including:
- An artist and makers market
- The Northern Lights Stage presented by Jack Link’s
- Street performers and buskers
- Games and activities
- Food and drink
- Pros of the Rope Double Dutch Lessons
- MAD DADS at each event
- And more!
