“We Are Water MN” explores the connections between the humanities and water through an exhibit, public events and educator resources. Visitors reflect on local stories and the meaning and experiences of water in Minnesota with space to add their own stories. By creating relationships around water, we are creating networks that can promote positive social norms, and share a vision for and participate in water stewardship.

Join the Minnesota Humanities Center and its “We Are Water MN” partners, the Minnesota Pollution Control Agency, the Minnesota Historical Society, and the Minnesota Departments of Agriculture, Health, and Natural Resources and our host site partners, the University of Minnesota’s Institute on the Environment and the River Life Program at the Grand Opening of the 2018-2019 “We Are Water MN” tour. The exhibit will be open to the public beginning at 3:00 p.m., with speakers sharing water stories beginning at 4:00 p.m. Stay after for a light reception and to see more of the exhibit!
