St. Paul – Learning from Place: Slow Roll’n Rondo, led by Cultural Wellness Center

The Minnesota Humanities Center is proud to feature Slow Roll’n Rondo, a program of the Cultural Wellness Center. Join members of the diverse, multi-generational, and intersectional Rondo Community as you explore the opportunities and possibilities of an African American Cultural Enterprise District connected by a land bridge. This is a community-led development process designed to achieve the aspirations of the Rondo community to right past wrongs, revitalize Rondo, and honor African American Cultural contributions that have sustained the Rondo Community and will serve as a model for restorative participatory community development.

Explore a journey through the community’s history and into the future during a conversationally-paced biking experience. You will get to know the places, people, and possibilities that will lead to a vibrant future. Special guests may include Seitu Jones, Commissioner Toni Carter, Mr. Marvin Anderson, and Mayor, Melvin Carter along with members of his staff.

The evening will include a community meal featuring Black chefs and food grown in community gardens.

The event starts at Hallie Q Brown Community Center parking lot at 270 North Kent Street, Saint Paul, MN 55102.
