This year, Minnesota Citizens for the Arts (MCA) celebrates a remarkable milestone—50 years of championing the arts at the Capitol. Together, we’ve safeguarded and expanded funding for arts programs, ensuring creativity thrives in every corner of our state. From the passage of the Legacy Amendment to countless victories for the arts, our work has been driven by the belief that art is essential to our lives and communities.
But this milestone isn’t just a celebration—it’s a call to action. As we reflect on our history, we must also plan for the future. Your support today is vital to ensuring the arts remain a transformative force for generations to come.
