Think you're familiar with your local park? Starting Tuesday June 16, The Minneapolis Park and Recreation Board (MPRB) invites people of all ages to explore the parks in fresh ways this summer with Nearby Nature.
All Nearby Nature activities are FREE and no registration is necessary. Just show up and be ready for fun, relaxation and inspiration! Rotating through parks every week or so, activities include the following:
-
Storybook Strolls
Walk through a great story and a park at the same time, page by page.
-
Natural Finds
Learn orienteering on special courses designed for Minneapolis parks.
-
Nature Quests
Discover nature in the park through scavenger hunts, challenges, informational signs and more.
-
Guided Experiences
Nature-inspired yoga poses, forest-bathing techniques and other prompts help your mind, body and soul tune into a refreshing state of nature.
-
Collaborative Nature Art
Find and add natural objects to mandalas, collages, community collections and other artworks-in-progress in the park.
