Directions

Powderhorn is the heart of a vibrant South Minneapolis neighborhood and centers on a beautiful lake ringed by a walking path, with a large open field used for community events including the beloved Powderhorn Art Fair each summer. It has a strong local identity and feels genuinely rooted in the community rather than polished for tourists. The surrounding neighborhood has seen some safety concerns in recent years, so be situationally aware, especially after dark.
