Every April, In the Heart of the Beast opens its doors to the public for a month of free workshops to create the floats, masks, puppets, and costumes that you'll see on MayDay.
These workshops provide a rare opportunity for people of all ages and walks of life to come together and work collectively on one of the most anticipated annual events in the Twin Cities. The financial and in-kind sponsorships of businesses and foundations help us keep these workshops free and open to everyone.
