Uptown United hosts volunteer community walks through Uptown’s commercial corridors on Friday and Saturday evenings at 6pm until about 7:30.

We meet at Seven Points (Lake & Hennepin) and walk in small groups to create a visible, positive presence in the neighborhood. Along the way, we support local businesses -- grab a taco, pick up a coffee, stop in and say hello. The goal is to bring energy back to the streets. Volunteers are also encouraged to pick up litter as we go. Small actions add up.

The corner party is turning into a block party! Remember the Memorial Day bash that brought out the Star Tribune? Join us for the Uptown Solstice Party where we’re bringing back Ann Kim’s Uptown Kimchi Dogs and Gs Fun Factory doodle booth.

But now we’ve got the whole neighborhood involved! There’ll be free samples from Penzey’s Spices; Magers and Quinn will be hosting a live reading of the Odyssey (how it was originally intended to be experienced!); Shop My Closet will be hosting their famous Pick Your Prize Event (11-3) where everyone’s a winner; and Queermunity will be hosting a FULL DAY pride celebration.

Come for free hotdogs and frozen treats and spend the day in Uptown, where summer is underway.
