A bar that only serves free tap water? It sounds like a joke, but it's a real thing, and it's open now in the Holland neighborhood. This new art and community space at 2516 Central Avenue offers visitors free tasting flights of local tap waters. The bartenders - scientists, artists, and community activists - help to teach visitors about where their water comes from and what they can do to protect water resources in Minneapolis and beyond.
This summer, Water Bar & Public Studio will be open every Monday night from 5 - 10PM for "Open Studio" art-making nights. Visitors can try their hand at screen printing and other art activities, or just hang out sipping water! Water Bar is also open Saturdays from 10-4PM and for special events. You can see a calendar at water-bar.org
Are you looking for volunteer opportunities? Water Bar is currently seeking volunteers of all ages and abilities to join them as Water Bar "water tenders" at the new space, and at pop-ups around Minneapolis - serving water and information to visitors. Other volunteer jobs include studio assistant and social media intern. You can contact Water Bar& Public Studio on Facebook or by email on the website water-bar.org
