Wirth Park Community Open House

The Minneapolis Park and Recreation Board (MPRB) announces a community design event for Theodore Wirth Regional Park. The multi-day event will bring together the Theodore Wirth Park Citizen Advisory Committee (CAC), community and a professional design team to create potential concepts for the park as a whole. The resulting concepts will be used by the CAC to develop recommendations for a park master plan and funding priorities.

Community members are invited to the following events:

• Nov. 2, Community Meeting (Wirth Chalet, 2nd Floor): This will be an opportunity for the CAC, design team and community to share and discuss key information about the park.

• Nov. 3, Open Studio (Wirth Chalet, 2nd Floor): The design team will be working in the chalet throughout the day to develop concepts. Stop by the chalet to see concept ideas in progress and visit with the designers.

• Nov. 5, Community Open House (Par 3 Golf Clubhouse): Attend an open house to review and comment on the design concepts

• Nov. 8, Citizen Advisory Committee Meeting (MPRB Headquarters Boardroom, 2117 West River Road): The CAC will be developing overall recommendations for the park’s master plan and funding priorities. All are welcome to attend and take advantage of the opportunity for public comment at 8:10 pm.
