MARCH 17, 2015 PROGRAM:
Creative Minnesota Report

We have known for a long time that the arts and culture are important to Minnesota. They enhance our quality of life, bring diverse communities together, and make our state a magnet for jobs and businesses. Now we know that, in addition to its stages and museums, the nonprofit arts and culture sector is also a substantial industry in the State of Minnesota, generating $1.2 billion in total economic impact annually.
 
Club member Michael-jon Pease unpacks the new "Creative Minnesota" report by Minnesota Citizens for the Arts and shares the human stories behind the numbers.
