Stablished in 1883, the Minneapolis Park and Recreation Board (MPRB) oversees a renowned urban park system spanning 6,817 acres of parkland and water.

Altogether, MPRB properties receive about 26 million visits annually. MPRB was recognized by the Trust for Public Land in 2013, 2014, 2015, 2016, 2017 and 2018 as the #1 urban park system in the United States. It is accredited by the Commission for Accreditation of Park and Recreation Agencies (CAPRA)—one of just one of five park agencies in Minnesota and some 169 in the United States that have this distinction for excellence in operations and service.

And how could they give back to the communities that had so richly rewarded them for their hard work?

The Hollywood Theater is an iconic Art Deco landmark in Northeast Minneapolis. When it opened in 1936, the theater was described as “the incomparable showcase of the Northwest’’. After years of decline, the theater closed in 1987 and was purchased by the city of Minneapolis. Twenty-five years of inaction and neglect followed until 2014 when the National Park Service recognized the building’s historical significance and listed it on the National Register of Historic Places. In 2015 the theater was sold to Northeast-resident and entrepreneur Andrew Volna, who saved the building and restored its original Art Deco splendor. Today it is ready to host your event.
