Mainstreet Day Arts & Craft Fair is sponsored by JCI Hopkins annually in May in downtown Hopkins. There's also free entertainment, games for the kids, and some of the best food trucks around.

JCI Hopkins, then the Hopkins Jaycees, started Mainstreet Day Arts & Craft Fair 36 years ago and still independently sponsors and plans this annual tradition! JCI is an all-volunteer leadership development organization focused on community service. All proceeds from Mainstreet Day are reinvested in Hopkins and the surrounding area through charitable donations and community projects.

Swede Hollow Park is hard to find, but we’ll help you out on June 1st. Come find this hidden gem of St. Paul’s park system, and we’ll open the summer by filling the park with local art! You can park your car at Saint Paul Brewing and wander through the reimagined ruins of city history en route to the park, winding the path under the shadow of the old Hamm Brewery buildings. You’ll find Art, Nature, Food, History, and Community!
