The Thinking Spot is a science-focused bookstore and learning center by long-time Minnesota resident Rima Parikh. Rima has a background in Computer Science and has worked in the IT industry in the Minneapolis area for several decades.  Lifelong reader with an interest in all things science,  she became interested in the concept of combining books and science. The Thinking Spot was born out of the desire to create a community gathering place where it is not just accepted but encouraged to lounge and read or meet and discuss; to take time to slow down and share ideas and the written word - to savor the good things in life.  It is a place to connect and learn together. Find enriching and interactive events including talks - by scientists, engineers, makers and, other thinkers -, project demos, classes, workshops and, more.  And to always come away having learned something new.
