Our facility at 400 S. Main Street in Wright Center reopened indoors to the general public on July 9!  Visits for now are by appointment. It is easy to book yours at: https://spi.schedulista.com.  For info about what to expect from your visit, check out our reopening FAQs.

While we were closed indoors, our organization continued serving community needs through an incredible, and free,  SPI to Go initiative and two seasons worth of Summer Camp programming. Thanks for your patience as we've worked through the planned phases of reopening and continue to manage in response to public health news.  We can't wait to see more of you inside SPI Spot!
