Arts District Speakeasy

The Northeast Minneapolis Arts District’s annual Speakeasy is Friday, Nov. 8, 5-10 pm, Saturday, Nov. 9, noon-8 pm and Sunday, Nov. 10, noon-5 pm, coinciding with the Fall Open Studios – Open Casket event. It will be in the lower level of the Casket Arts Building, mirroring the often-hidden secret hideaways used for prohibition-era alcohol consumption. Beer and Bloodies will be served from noon to 5 pm on Saturday and Sunday. The evening hours (5-10 pm Friday & 5-8 pm Saturday) will feature prohibition-era-inspired cocktails with high-quality spirits donated by lead sponsor, 45th Parallel Distillery. NA Beer and non-alcoholic “Prohibition Punch” will also be available. Proceeds further the Arts District’s mission to sustain and promote Northeast’s fabulous, award-winning arts district. Sponsors, in addition to 45th Parallel, are Stray Dog, Central Avenue Liquors, Nan’s Naughty and Nice and the Casket Arts Building, which is hosting the Speakeasy.
