On Saturday, May 18, from noon-3pm, the Our Power campaign will be hosting a party for Midtown-area residents involved–or looking to get involved–in local energy solutions. This event follows a similar event on March 16 where 25 neighbors met together to discuss the efforts that neighbors in Corcoran and a few surrounding neighborhoods have taken to create energy solutions through:
- Home energy education programs
- Block groups raising awareness around energy solutions by chalking, house parties, and more
- Groups buying insulation and solar panels in bulk
- Community solar projects and solar cooperatives
- Neighborhood, Minneapolis, and state-wide energy planning and policy initiatives
- Local businesses leading the way towards energy solutions
- And more!
At this party:
- Enjoy free food and great conversation
- Get to know your neighbors
- Learn from people across Midtown who are helping neighbors cut their energy bills, generate clean energy, and create local jobs
- Share your own actions and ideas
- Enjoy hands-on how-to activities and information about support you can get to start your own neighborhood energy team
Noon-1pm: Lunch and conversation about community efforts.
1-3pm: Updates on neighborhood efforts, information on support and opportunities, activities, and ways to get involved.
Location: Stewart Park Multi-Purpose room, 2700 12th Ave S, Minneapolis, MN 55404
