The Turf Club in conjunction with the Minnesota Historical Society is hosting a series called the History of Hip.

This series will explore the mysterious factors that confer hipness on an artist or a fad, and trace the origins of the music and art genres that still register with artists, audiences, and tastemakers today.

The first event, The Beats, is Tuesday, March 4, at 7:30pm. That will be followed by Design on April 22 and Jazz on May 6.

You will need a ticket. Register online or call 651-259-3015. Tickets for all three events are available now. You gotta be 21 (it is the Turf Club).

Is there a hipper place in town than the Turf Club? They have a Clown Lounge, fer chrissake.
