Water Bar

Water Bar is a public art project developed by Works Progress Studio and their multidisciplinary collaborators. It is, most simply, a bar that serves local tap waters. Step up and sample a tasting flight of municipal waters from around the Twin Cities, and learn about the local aquifers, lakes and rivers where these waters are sourced. At Water Bar, public works professionals, research scientists, water advocates and environmental science students tend bar and engage visitors in conversation about the life-sustaining, precarious, communal activity of drinking water, and how to protect our water resources.
