August 2, 2014, Saturday - Common Room Tours with the Soap Factory
Time: Tour starts at 2:30am (thus the name, Overnight Tour)
Location: The Soap Factory, 514 Second Street SE
Now in it's seventh season, Common Room began as a month-long series of interactive art events, out of a refurbished art deco office at The Soap Factory. Since 2011, Sergio Vucci and Andy Sturdevant have taken the Common Room concept outside the four walls of The Soap Factory and into the city, activating public spaces and redefining our relationship with our surroundings.
When the bartenders announce last call in downtown Minneapolis on a Saturday night, there's countless others who are just beginning their work days. On this first-ever early morning Common Room tour, we'll walk from the Soap Factory across the 3rd Avenue Bridge and through the heart of downtown, visiting hospitals, bakeries, cab companies, afterparties, hotels, corporate security desks, police stations and restaurants, and meeting some of the people that work the overnight shift.
Tour starts at 2:30 am and will conclude around 5:00 am with breakfast at a surprise location. Free coffee provided throughout the night.
