Earth Day Mississippi River Cleanup
Join the University of St. Thomas on Earth Day to clean up litter by the Mississippi River! Feel free to drop by anytime between 3:30-5:30 PM to help out. Look for the table at the entrance of Shadow Falls Park near the intersection of Summit Avenue and Mississippi River Boulevard. Gloves and trash bags are provided. All are welcome to join, and you can stay for as long or as little as you like.
The Sacred Water Shared Future campaign is powered by you! The heart of this centennial celebration is the incredible variety of events planned and hosted by our partners — community groups, nonprofits, businesses, schools, and individuals who feel a connection to the Mississippi River.
We do not host events ourselves; instead, we serve as a central hub for river-focused activities happening across the Twin Cities throughout 2026.
