Mississippi Musings July Workshop: Stormwater Connections

Join us on a journey from your neighborhood to the Mississippi River as we explore the personal side of stormwater science and policy.

In this Mississippi Musings workshop, Mississippi River paddler Devin Brown will share what draws her to the river. Fourteen years ago, she moved to Minnesota because she was curious about the Mississippi River. She’s still following it, and the stories, lessons, and community she’s found along the way continue to shape her life.

MWMO Planner-Project Manager Aaron Goemann will then explore the people, history, and challenges that shaped Minneapolis’ storm sewer system, connecting the city’s past to the way stormwater moves through our neighborhoods today.

The evening concludes with a hands-on art activity led by artist Kimberly Boustead, inviting participants to reflect on what a healthy river looks like to them.

Enjoy light refreshments and take time to explore the Stormwater Park and Learning Center.

This event is free, but registration is required.
