Meet Up with MCA in Anoka and Help Shape the Future of Arts Funding in Minnesota!

Minnesota Citizens for the Arts (MCA) is wrapping up its statewide tour, and we’d love for you to be part of one of the final stops right here in the metro area on June 2nd.

Join us for an engaging, informal gathering where artists, arts organizations, community leaders, and advocates come together to share real stories about the impact of Legacy Arts Funding. This is your chance to connect, be heard, and help shape the future of the arts in Minnesota.

Tuesday, June 2nd from 1:00 -  2:00 PM

Lyric Arts

420 E Main St, Anoka, MN 55303

How has arts funding strengthened your community?

What role does it play in your neighborhood’s vibrancy and economy?

Who benefits when the arts thrive?

Come be part of that conversation.

You’ll have the opportunity to meet and exchange ideas with:

• Sarah Fossen, Executive Director, MCA
• Kathy Mouacheupao, Director, Metropolitan Regional Arts Council

• Sue Gens, Executive Director, Minnesota State Arts Board

• MCA’s advocacy team from Winthrop & Weinstine

• and our hosts at Lyric Arts

Local legislators have also been invited, making this a valuable opportunity to share your perspective directly with decision-makers.

This is a relaxed, welcoming space to connect with fellow advocates, build relationships, and ensure the arts continue to flourish across Minnesota.

We hope you’ll join us, your voice matters.

The event is co-sponsored by MCA & Lyric Arts.
