Kick-off the Forever Saint Paul Challenge at Saint Paul's Union Depot!

To celebrate the launch of the Forever Saint Paul Challenge, The Saint Paul Foundation will attempt to break the Guinness World Record for the "Largest Picture Made of Lite-Brite" on Saturday, February 16, 2013, at the newly renovated Union Depot, 214 East Fourth Street, Saint Paul.

This giant art installation will be 12-feet tall by 24-feet long and filled with 520,000+ Lite-Brite pegs. It will feature a mural created by award-winning Saint Paul artist Ta-coumba T. Aiken. Activities for the public begin at 3:00 p.m., including super-sized games, live music, food and a chance to submit your million-dollar idea. Come early and be part of history by adding the final Lite-Brite pegs before we flip the switch!

At 7:00 p.m., Saint Paul Mayor Chris  Coleman, Carleen Rhodes and a Guinness World Record judge will host an official lighting ceremony for the world's biggest Lite-Brite.

The Saint Paul Foundation’s Forever Saint Paul Challenge is brought to you by the Minnesota Idea Open. All Minnesotans are invited to answer the question: What would you do with $1 million to make Saint Paul great? Learn more at MNIdeaOpen.org/foreversaintpaul.

Our Forever Saint Paul Lite-Brite is made possible with support from the Union Depot, Display Arts, Event Pro, College Muscle Movers, Seestedt's Carpets & Linoleum, W Marketing, Kanary Studios and Apres Party Rental.
