Hungry? Us, too! The Minnesota State Fair features 300+ food vendors offering 500+ menu items – 80 of which are on-a-stick! Check back in August 2021 to learn about all of the food vendors and what they’ll be serving at the 2021 Great Minnesota Get-Together!
The East Isles Residents Association is in partnership with The Minneapolis Park and Recreation Board to create the first-ever Farmers Market in a park on Park Board property. The Farmers Market is the brainchild of the East Isles Residents Association and was established as a means to further our mission of building community, promoting green spaces, and fostering neighbor relations.
East Isles is a destination in the summer months and the location for the market is a trifecta for residents, visitors and potential vendors.
With the Walker Library and transit stop to the east, Uptown/Lagoon Avenue to the south, The Greenway running parallel, and East Calhoun Parkway/Lake of the Isles just down the block to the west, the East Isles Farmers Market is a prime location for easy access to locally sourced food and fun.
Our Mission
The East Isles Farmers Market inspires a healthy community by bringing local, sustainable, and mostly organic or pesticide-free produce to our high-density neighborhood. It’s accessible by bike, foot, or skateboard.
We Love Local
We contribute to the success of local food growers, bakers, and makers by supporting local entrepreneurs and artisans.
We strive to include women and minority-owned businesses to further an equitable marketplace. More than half of our vendors are women-owned businesses.
We vet the quality of sourcing, production and growing practices of our vendors.
We provide educational opportunities related to food, rain gardens, sustainability and zero waste.
“The Camdentown vision is to be a place to celebrate and enjoy Black culture in the state of Minnesota by supporting Black-led and Black-owned businesses that can provide for the community.” – Houston White
We are here to foster a community of people united in the pursuit of living our highest good with style, swagger and heart. The Houston White brand of apparel, accessories, and gathering spaces was born to bring together people of all identities, races, cultures, backgrounds, and neighborhoods.

DESIGNER, ENTREPRENEUR AND COMMUNITY LEADER HOUSTON WHITE
As a kid in North Minneapolis, Houston White began selling t-shirts from his backpack and cutting hair for cash. He was a young entrepreneur, hussling hard to create a future all his own.
Today, Houston is a creative powerhouse who brings people, cultures and communities together to elevate one another. He believes style is an act of self celebration, a means of asserting your point of view and bridging the distance between yourself and others.
Houston motivates everyone around him to seek more, be more and do more for the people and ideas that matter to them. He is invested in creating a better world, particularly for the Black community, and regularly collaborates with local government officials and business leaders to increase racial equity.
In 2007, Houston founded Houston White Men’s Room, a barbershop in the Camdentown neighborhood of North Minneapolis. Known as the Black man’s country club, HWMR is more than a barbershop—it’s a gathering place for community building, authentic expression of self, and inclusive celebration of Black culture. Over the years, the shop has grown into a vibrant hub for people of any skin color and all walks of life who crave a culture of their own making.

The Guthrie Theater plans to reopen its doors to the public on July 8 and welcomes show-goers to enjoy its public spaces as it marks 15 years in the Minneapolis Mill District this summer. The Guthrie houses three state-of-the-art stages, production facilities, classrooms, restaurants, and dramatic public spaces!
The plays include “What the Constitution Means to Me,” “A Christmas Carol,” “A Raisin in the Sun,” “The Tempest,” “Emma,” “Sweat,” and a seventh title to be announced.
In-person performances are said to resume on the Wurtele Thrust Stage and McGuire Proscenium Stage this fall, while programming in the Dowling Studio will remain paused until fall 2022.
Guthrie’s Artistic Director Joseph Haj expressed his gratitude to guests and shared the theater’s struggles over the past year.
“We’re grateful for the opportunity to respond to the losses and challenges of the past year through theater, allowing us to both experience joy and entertainment while grappling with matters of great significance together. My hope is that this season will celebrate all that the theater is meant to be while extending hope and healing to everyone in our community,” said Haj.
Our 2021–2022 Season offers an eclectic mix of classic and contemporary works that present forever-relevant themes and shared human experiences. Along the way, hope shows up in unexpected places and reminds us that healing is possible — especially when we seek it together. Whether you’re returning to the Guthrie or joining us for the first time, there’s a seat at the theater waiting for you.
