Save the date: Hamline Midway’s Heartwood Festival 2013

Hamline Midway Coalition is proud to announce the date of the fourth annual Hamline Midway Heartwood Festival: Saturday, June 1, 2013!

The Hamline Midway Heartwood Festival is a celebration of community, sustainability, and art at Newell Park, 900 N. Fairview Ave. The festival kicks off with the participatory Bike Walk Parade from Hancock Rec Center to Newell Park, where guests will enjoy live entertainment, food, resource and art fairs, and activities from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m.

NEW this year: Help restore the historic oak woodland at Newell Park by planting trees and removing invasive species through the reNewell project. Also, look for sporting events like a community kickball tournament.

In preparation for the Bike Walk Parade, the Canvas Teen Arts Center is opening up a mask-making workshop to all community members on Thursdays from 5-7 p.m. the entire month of May at Hancock Rec Center.

Register for a booth, donate to the silent auction, volunteer, and learn more about the festival at www.hamlinemidway.org/heartwood. The Hamline Midway Heartwood Festival is planned by the Community Building Committee of Hamline Midway Coalition in partnership with St. Paul Parks and Recreation. This activity is made possible by the voters of Minnesota through a grant from the Metropolitan Regional Arts Council, thanks to a legislative appropriation from the arts and cultural heritage fund.
