The City of Mankato participated in an economic study called Creative MN in 2019, showing the impact of Mankato artists, creative workers and nonprofit arts and culture organizations on the economy. The results are in and the creative economy in Mankato is impressive!

Join us on Monday, April 27 at the Mankato City Council meeting where Sheila Smith from MN Citizens for the Arts and other arts leaders from the community will present the data findings.

We need all artists, arts leaders, creative business owners and passionate patrons to show up in support of more investment in arts, culture and creativity! To show solidarity among the arts community, wear white; Twin Rivers will supply you with a "Get Creative Mankato" button.
