The Art Sled Rally!

The Powderhorn Art Sled Rally is one of my favorite events in the Twin Cities!

What the heck is a sled rally?  “Watch the antics of outrageous never-tried-before art sleds*, or drop in yourself with a contraption of your own. Each sled and its creator will take to a decorated hill accompanied by throngs of spectators. Live music, a warming tent, hot chocolate and coffee will round out the afternoon’s activities.”

This recap video from 2011 also gives you a good idea of what to expect.

Regardless of snow conditions, the Annual Art Sled Rally is held on Saturday January 25th, on the western slopes of beautiful Powderhorn Park in South Minneapolis from 2-5pm.
