This October, the runway comes to Minneapolis as the special exhibition “Paris Couture” opens in Mia’s galleries, featuring a curated lineup of family-friendly activities including fashion shows, puppet making, dress-up, and guided gallery tours.

It’s spooky season!  From not-so-scary to creepy-crawly, we have all of the Halloween events and trunk or treats in the Twin Cities area!  Be sure to check back often as events are added to our calendar!
