This is an opportunity to provide input. How should

this most public place reflect your community,

Minnesotans

and our values?

We have newly witnessed a need and desire for change in the way we represent and respect the cultures and values of Minnesota’s people, specifically Indigenous, African American, and Immigrant.

What are your thoughts?

We are beginning our task by seeking your opinions and thoughts on the Commemorative Art of the State Capitol.

Our findings will be reported to the Capitol Area Architectural Board, more info on the board and task force.
