May Day Prep

Families are invited to help In the Heart of the Beast Theatre get ready for its annual May Day parade. Each week, the public is invited to bring recycled items to community workshops.

Participants can make their own creations and keep them as souvenirs after the parade. 9-11 a.m. & 1-3 p.m. Saturdays through April 28. Free. In the Heart of the Beast Theatre, 1500 E. Lake St., Mpls. hobt.org
