Learn about the history of Minneapolis with the free Courtyard Family Day at Mill City Museum!

This Saturday, August 17 is Courtyard Family Day at Mill City Museum in which the whole family can learn about bridges and trains in Minneapolis!

The fun takes place outside in the courtyard of Mill City Museum. Admission is free.

I do not know if the indoor exhibits will be open, but my guess is that if they are, you’ll need to pay admission to visit those exhibits.

About this event:

Minneapolis has beautiful bridges, including the iconic Stone Arch Bridge that was built to bring trains to the city! Join us for a day celebrating our bridges and trains with hands-on activities like stone arch building blocks and team building a model bridge with the Minnesota Department of Transportation outreach team. Bring the whole family to this educational and fun day!

Mill City Museum is located at 704 S 2nd St in Minneapolis.
