Duluth and Good Word Brewing Raise a Glass to Community at Little Beer VI

This past Saturday, the Duluth Town Green came alive as residents and visitors gathered for one of the city’s most anticipated spring traditions…Good Word Brewing’s Little Beer VI.

With more than 80 breweries from across the country, the event offered attendees a chance to experience an impressive variety of craft beers, from fan favorites to rare and limited pours. Guests enjoyed a full afternoon of live music, explored a vibrant artist market featuring local makers, and connected with friends and neighbors in the heart of downtown Duluth.

Beyond the beer, Little Beer VI showcased the spirit that makes Duluth special. From the curated experiences to the welcoming atmosphere, the event highlighted the strength of our local partnerships and the continued growth of our downtown as a destination for community-driven events.

The City of Duluth extends a heartfelt thank you to Good Word Brewing, participating breweries, performers, vendors, and everyone who attended and helped make the day a success. Events like Little Beer continue to bring people together and create lasting memories for our community.

We look forward to welcoming everyone back again next year. Cheers to Duluth! 🍻

 

 

 

 

 

City of Duluth Celebrates Groundbreaking for Bunten Road Park Walking Trail Improvements

 

The City of Duluth proudly marked an exciting milestone on Wednesday, March 25, with a ribbon-cutting ceremony celebrating the groundbreaking of the Bunten Road Park Walking Trail Improvements project.

Mayor Greg Whitlock was joined by Council Members Sarah Park, Manfred Graeder, and Shenée Johnson-Cummings, along with city staff and project partners, to officially kick off this important enhancement to one of Duluth’s most beloved parks. The project represents a significant investment in improving connectivity, accessibility, and overall park experience for residents and visitors.

The Bunten Road Park Improvements project will include repairs and replacement of the existing walking trail, expanded trail connections, ADA-compliant accessibility upgrades, and improvements to park infrastructure to enhance safety, sustainability, and long-term usability. While construction is underway, the park will remain open, with some temporary closures in select areas.

Community members can look forward to a revitalized park experience, with the project currently on track for completion in spring 2027.
