Nothing says “I’m fascinating, smart, AND hip” like inviting that special someone to one of the finest art museums in America. Just around the corner in the shiny, happy city of Minneapolis, the spectacular Minneapolis Institute of Art waits. With a rock solid Asian art collection, period rooms, textile exhibits, an outstanding collection of over 900 paintings and sculptures and a cool space to walk around in during the winter months, there is plenty to do an see at the MIA…. and, its all free, even parking.
