OPEN DOORS: Celebrating One Year at the Historic Lumber Exchange
A Celebration of Minneapolis, Its Creativity, Culture & Community
In celebration of the one-year anniversary of purchasing the historic Lumber Exchange, we're delighted to open our doors and invite the city of Minneapolis to celebrate with us!
Built in 1885, the Lumber Exchange has been part of Minneapolis' story for more than 140 years. Over the past year, we've been bringing new life to this extraordinary building, creating spaces for artists, entrepreneurs, small businesses, and creative thinkers to connect, collaborate, and thrive.
Now, we're inviting you inside to experience it for yourself.
OPEN DOORS is a free, building-wide celebration of the people, creativity, and culture that make Minneapolis such a special place.
