The Silobration Street Dance will be held on Friday, Aug 28, in Citizens Alley. The second annual event celebrates North Dakota's largest mural that was completed in the fall 2025 on the retired grain silos at 318 1st St. NE in downtown Minot.
The event runs from 7-10:30 p.m. Live music from the Chloe Raye Band will start at 7:30 p.m. The meat raffle offers $1,000 in prizes.
Admission is free and open to all ages.
"The mural is a reflection of who we are as a community," said organizer Chelsea Gleich. "In that same spirit, the Silobration Street Dance isn't just about the mural. It's a joyful celebration of what makes Minot special: grit, creativity, connection and small-town spirit."
The mural and event are organized by the Union Silos Public Art Project – a group of local residents who commissioned Australian-born visual artist and photographer Guido van Helten to transform the retired Farmers Union grain silos into a larger-than-life portrait of the community and the only piece of its kind in North Dakota. The mural came to life throughout the summer of 2025, spans all four sides of the silos and is visible from vantage points across the city.
"We're excited to bring back the Silo Scavenger Hunt as a fun way to get attendees of all ages to engage with the Union Silos mural and celebrate our vibrant arts community," said Cole Krueger, another local organizer for the project. Scavenger Hunt forms will be available at any Minot Town and Country Credit Union branch the week of the event. Participants who turn in their scavenger hunt forms at the event will be eligible for a chance to win $100.
