As you ride the E Line, explore local neighborhoods and stop by participating businesses listed below to collect stamps in your E Line Passport. Some businesses may offer special discounts or promotions for passport holders! Collect stamps from three different communities and earn an exclusive prize available from Minneapolis College on Dec. 6 or from Walker Library on Dec. 13.
Pick up your passport on Dec. 6 at the ribbon cutting ceremony at Minneapolis College, or any of these libraries: Linden Hills Library, Walker Library, Minneapolis Central Library, or Arvonne Fraser Library.
