75-Year-Old Mount Sinai Time Capsule Offers a Glimpse Into Twin Cities Jewish History

The discovery of a time capsule at Mount Sinai Hospital, sealed 75 years ago, gives a historical glimpse into the Jewish community of the late 1940’s. The capsule was discovered during the construction of Hope Academy in September 2025. This building was once Mount Sinai Hospital, which opened its doors in 1951. As construction plans would permanently conceal the hospital’s original cornerstone, Hope Academy contacted the Jewish Historical Society of the Upper Midwest to see whether the organization wanted to retrieve a time capsule believed to be inside.

Open Studios in NE, Colson Whitehead, Evan Clark Does ‘Jesse Ventura’: This Week’s Best Events

Welcome to Event Horizon, your weekly roundup of the best events in Minneapolis, St. Paul, and beyond. Tom Wilson may not be the first name to spring up when you think of great record producers, but throughout the ’60s, this Black staffer at Columbia University consistently found himself at the center of the action. Steven E. Jones’s Everything is Everything: Tom Wilson and Pop Music in 1966 sets out to learn why, and to restore Wilson’s contributions to the public record. By that landmark year, Wilson had already run a jazz label that released albums from Sun Ra and Cecil Taylor, worked on Dylan’s first five records and got “Like a Rolling Stone” on tape, and produced Simon & Garfunkel’s “The Sound of Silence.” He would go on to salvage the recordings that would become The Velvet Underground & Nico and worked with Frank Zappa’s the Mothers of Invention. The ’60s, man. Free. 6 p.m. 3032 Minnehaha Ave., Minneapolis; find more info here.—Keith Harris.
