Caring for seniors in our community since 1988.

They will discuss their artwork, both the philosophy and the ‘nuts and bolts of how they do it and they will also talk about how the creating and displaying of work by local artists can help develop and arts community in the Southeast neighborhood.

“Although we continue to have deep and fundamental concerns about the impact that light rail will have on our campus — particularly on the critical research projects conducted along the length of Washington Avenue — the University’s Board of Regents chose not to file suit in federal court.

“Done well, the Central Corridor project is good for the University, for our neighbors and for the community. We have devoted literally thousands of hours to working with our Met Council counterparts to find a way for light rail and the University’s education and research mission to coexist successfully. We have tentative agreements in place for how light rail can be built and operated safely across our campus while minimizing adverse impacts on our daily work. We are meeting almost daily to reach agreement on how to measure and fix any problems that may occur in the future. Given the distance we’ve come, these last steps seem within our powers.

“We believe we can resolve our differences without federal litigation. The resources and attention of both parties will be better spent finding shared solutions for the remaining issues we face, and I sincerely hope we can work together to move this project forward.”

Join others in your community to raise awareness about the census. On Sunday March 28th at noon, meet us at the 312 Central Ave., Minneapolis, MN 55414.

Help us make sure that everyone is counted in your community. The Census Bureau estimates that for every person not counted, your community would lose $10,000 in federal funding. That’s funding for schools, roads, public safety and medical care.

Secretary of State Mark Ritchie will explain why the census is important before we go out into the community to engage your neighbors. Contact matt@votingrightsmn.org
