Head to Union Depot for their special Depot Days select Wednesdays of the month during summer.
Union Depot is such a fun place to visit! We’ve shared about it a lot with their special events, local art fairs, the new Choo Choo Bob’s Train Store and more. It’s becoming more and more accessible to the entire community as a fun gathering space.
This summer is no exception as they are hosting the Depot Days of Summer select Wednesdays June through August from 10am to Noon. Each event day will be packed with kid-friendly games, crafts, activities and fun entertainment – all aligned with the month’s theme.
Each month is a different theme! This year’s schedule includes:
- Wednesday, June 17 – Princesses and Pirates. Attendees are encouraged to dress like their favorite princess or pirate. Activities include creating crowns or pirate hats, story time with Cinderella, music, temporary tattoos, plus games and prizes with the Twin Cities Road Crew.
- Wednesday, July 22 – All About Animals. Guests will create masks to become their favorite animal, hop over to the bunny petting zoo, meet and pet a Samoyed, get free balloon animals, plus games and prizes with the Twin Cities Road Crew.
- Wednesday, August 19 – Under the Sea. Participants will decorate shells, explore ocean discoveries with the Science Museum of Minnesota, plus face painting and prizes with the Twin Cities Road Crew.
Choo Choo Bob’s Train Store will also offer their play space for free from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. during each event. We would highly recommend visiting Union Depot for Choo Choo Bob’s alone! Check out our Choo Choo Bob’s review to learn more.
