4 Walker Art Centre and Sculpture Garden Continue south on Nicollet Avenue and turn right near the Hyatt Regency, weaving through the inner city greenery of Loring Park. Cross the highway and you’ll see the Spoonbridge and Cherry sculpture, which is just as it sounds: a giant spoon with a red cherry on its rim. Enter the Minneapolis Sculpture Garden, an outdoor park housing more than 40 works of art, including Hahn/Cock, a huge blue rooster, which debuted in London’s Trafalgar Square in 2013. Next to the gardens is Walker Art Centre, a magnificent metallic and glass structure and one of the most visited museums in the country. Within its crisp silver and white walls, you’ll find a vast array of contemporary art, from simple paintings to moving image collections. walkerart.org

5 Bde Maka Ska


Minnesota licence plates read “10,000 Lakes”, though in reality the state contains even more. Just a ten-minute taxi ride from the Walker Art Centre is Lake Calhoun, recently renamed Bde Maka Ska to preserve Minnesota’s Native American culture. Among paddleboard rentals and long lines of sailing boats, the lake’s eastern shore boasts a quaint boardwalk. If you have time and fancy a craſt beer, head down West Lake Street to Lynlake Brewery, where the Uptown folk gather amid bare-brick walls and bicycle wheels that hang from the ceiling. Take note when ordering a drink that in the US a pint is 473ml; a UK pint is 568ml. Alternatively, stick around Bde Maka Ska for the sunset, and witness the Minneapolis skyline reflected in the lake’s waters at twilight. lynlakebrewery.com
