The Minnesota Historical Society, the Minnesota State Arts Board and the Minnesota Humanities Center are hosting a series of listening sessions to obtain public input for a 10-year plan and 25-year framework for the use of funds made available through the Arts and Cultural Heritage Fund.
Representatives from the three organizations and 10 other history, arts and cultural organizations and libraries will work together to develop a plan for how proceeds of the Arts and Cultural Heritage Fund will be spent. The results of this collaborative planning process will be reported to the legislature by Jan. 15, 2010.
They will be at the Minnesota Discovery Center in Chisholm on Tuesday, October 27 from 5:00 to 7:00 p.m.
The Arts and Cultural Heritage Fund was established through constitutional amendment, approved by voters in November 2008, which added a provision to Minnesota’s constitution that provides for an increase in the sales tax to support outdoor heritage, clean water, parks and trails, as well as arts, history and cultural heritage.
