We passed G.O. (Grand Opening)—now it’s time to celebrate and build our Community Connections Chest!

Join us at Granite Innovations on Saturday, November 1, from 6:00–10:00 p.m. for our Monopoly-inspired evening of fun and philanthropy benefiting Great River Children’s Museum. Expect signature cocktails, playful games, gourmet bites, and chances to win big—all while helping us spark learning through play.

Enjoy heavy appetizers prepared by Jules Bistro, live music by Aksel and Kim, and a silent auction filled with exciting items and experiences. Make your move, roll the dice, and help us continue to spark learning through play for children and families across Central Minnesota.
