First Ave's Too Much Love is always a good time
It's incredible how much happens in the Twin Cities over a single month. From art hops to dance parties to street fests, the variety of events is quite impressive. City Pages photographers are often in the eye of the storm of craziness, capturing the most memorable moments and people.

There's still a few hours left of May 2012, but a nostalgia post recapping all the slides of the month seems in order. Come take a look.

St. Paul's East Side celebrated Cinco de Mayo with an all-day street party featuring a parade, cultural performances, live music, and tasty food.

This rite of spring was rescheduled due to rain. And while the skies threatened storms once again, Powderhorn friends and neighbors came together to celebrate community, sustainability, and creativity.

Graduating students at St. Catherine University showed their stuff on the catwalk. One student's work appears to be especially inspired by late-night study munchies.
