"Somalis + Minnesota" Exhibit 

About

From artists to elected officials to teachers and other professionals, members of the Somali community shape--and are shaped by--the fabric of daily life in Minnesota. This exhibit will showcase the history of the first Somali immigrants who arrived in Minnesota in the 1960s and their community today, highlighting their culturally rooted values like hospitality, family bonds and interdependence. This exhibit is being developed in partnership with the Somali Museum of Minnesota.
