Join us Thursday, May 28 for an evening of music, poetry, storytelling, and community in one of Hopkins’ coziest creative spaces. The performer lineup is officially full, with a mix of familiar faces and several first-time performers taking the stage.

Not performing? Come anyway. Grab a coffee, settle in, and cheer on these brave and talented artists. The room is always welcoming, the talent is always surprising, and every night feels a little different.

A little spring sprucing at the Depot 🌱

Fresh plantings from our partners at Three Rivers Park District, plus some serious elbow grease from our team in bringing the patio furniture back to life.

Getting ready for coffee outside, music nights, bike traffic, and summer at the Depot.

Thursday night at the Depot.

Our Members’ Open Mic Spotlight returns Thursday from 6–8pm, featuring a special set from Duo CORDA at 7:15pm.

If you haven’t seen Duo CORDA before, this is a pretty remarkable chance to catch them in a small-room setting.

The evening starts with member performances from 6–7pm, followed by Duo CORDA’s featured set.

Music, conversation, coffee, beer, wine, and one of our favorite kinds of Depot evenings.

Curious? This video is from Duo CORDA performing at Hopkins Center for the Arts last month.

This weekend around the Depot feels like the official beginning of the season.

Coffee grinding all day - cold brew ready for Saturday, Metro Transit’s Open Trails to the Rails and taco truck tomorrow, and bikes rolling through all the time.

Plus:
Bjorn Cycling launches their Depot pop-up this Sunday with tune-ups available while you grab coffee or hit the trails.

And next week:
Duo CORDA + Members’ Open Mic Spotlight Thursday, May 14 from 6–8pm.

A lot is happening around this little building lately, and we’re very okay with that.
