LEGACY PARTNERS

 

With funding from arts and cultural heritage fund the Humanities Center is partnering with the Council on Asian Pacific Minnesotans, the Council on Black Minnesotans, the Chicano Latino Affairs Council, and the Minnesota Indian Affairs Council to highlight and reaffirm that Minnesota has always been home to multiple and varied lived experiences, cultural traditions, and viewpoints.

The Humanities Center programs funded by the arts and cultural heritage fund recognize and affirm that the dynamism that occurs through the interaction of these experiences has resulted in the establishment of a state that is known nationwide for its creativity, innovation, and commitment to educational and economic opportunity for all of its residents.
