Esker Grove Patio Opening Party Features $5 Food and Drink Specials, DJ Tunes by Kurt Ruslin

Esker Grove Patio Opening Party
Tuesday, May 14, 6–9 pm
Rain or Shine

It’s patio season at the Walker! After a stroll in Five Ways In, or a walk through the Minneapolis Sculpture Garden, join us for the official opening of Esker Grove’s patio and celebrate $5 food and drinks.

We will be offering $5 specials on food, beer, wine & cocktails. How do you feel about fresh fruit caipirinhas with Novo Fogo Cachaça?

It wouldn’t be a celebration without hot jamz, so we’ve invited one of our favorite DJs—Kurt Ruslin—to spin (actual vinyl) until close.


FOOD
Ribs—gochujang, peanuts, scallion
Peel & Eat Shrimp—chili, lime
Romanesco—tahini, capers, currants

BEVERAGES
Novo Fogo Caipirinha Bar
Letherbee Fitzgeralds
Beer

ABOUT ESKER GROVE

Located adjacent to the Minneapolis Sculpture Garden in the entrance to the Walker Art Center, chef Doug Flicker and his team celebrate seasonal ingredients at Esker Grove.

Esker Grove is open for lunch 11am – 3pm followed by afternoon happy hour and snacks with dinner service beginning at 5pm. Brunch is available Saturdays and Sundays at 10:30am. Patio dining is available weather and season permitting. Closed on Mondays.

ESKER: An esker is a long ridge of gravel and other earth where water from a retreating glacier or ice sheet accumulates. This represents the flow of guests, between the Walker Art Center, Sculpture Garden, Walker Shop and surrounding communities.

GROVE: A grove is a small group of trees, or in this case, a place for people to gather surrounded by modern art, nature and food.
