Venue
What better place to bring Minnesota Star Tribune stories to life than our historic Heritage Printing Facility in the North Loop of Minneapolis. In partnership with local event powerhouse Street Factory Media, the Strib will transform the vast paper warehouse into an immersive exhibit featuring mind-bending visual and tactile experiences.
Silent Auction
Journalism across the country has experienced staggering losses and local news sources are vanishing. In partnership with The Minneapolis Foundation, we are meeting this crisis by investing in our journalism and amplifying the voices of our colleagues around the state. All donations collected during the silent auction will benefit The Minnesota Star Tribune Local News Fund, which invests in community-funded journalism with the help of community supporters like you.
Auction items will be available for pre-event, online bidding beginning December 16th.
Attire
Cocktail attire, between business and formal attire with a little added pizzazz. Most importantly, you want to dress like you! Feel free to incorporate some elements that highlight your personality. Cocktail attire should make you feel your best. Coat check will be available on site.
