SUMMARY:Little Falls - We Are Water MN
DESCRIPTION:The We Are Water MN traveling exhibit examines water issues statewide and in local communities through personal stories\, histories\, and scientific information. It strengthens Minnesotans’ relationships with water\, exposes visitors to new perspectives\, and increases participation in water stewardship activities. \nHost Partner: Great River Arts \nAs the summer comes to a close and fall sets in\, join We Are Water MN at Great River Arts (GRA) in Little Fall\, where creativity meets community.

SUMMARY:Empire - Learning from Place: Watt Munisotaram (Cambodian Temple)
DESCRIPTION:What does it mean to learn from a place shaped by history\, migration\, and spiritual practice? \nThis Learning from Place experience invites participants to explore Watt Munisotaram\, the largest Cambodian Buddhist temple in the United States\, located in the countryside of Empire\, Minnesota. Participants will engage with the temple as a living cultural and spiritual site\, learning directly from community members\, monks\, and the landscape itself. \nAs we move through the temple grounds\, we will explore Cambodia’s history and the experiences that brought Cambodian families to Minnesota – home to the fifth-largest Cambodian population in the United States. Through stories and guided exploration\, participants will learn how Watt Munisotaram serves as a place of cultural continuity\, community connection\, and spiritual life. \nParticipants will hear from community members and Buddhist monks\, explore the temple’s architecture and symbolism\, enjoy traditional Cambodian foods\, and participate in a brief guided meditation as a way to learn about a practice central to Cambodian Buddhist traditions. \nK-12 Educators will receive 3 clock hours upon completion of the event. \nThis experience is presented in collaboration with Cambodian American Partnership (CAPMN)\, a non-profit organization committed to building a resilient community that honors Cambodian history by cultivating a sense of belonging. \nRegistration\nTo ensure that cost is not a barrier\, we have a limited number of complimentary spaces available for Minnesota residents. If you would like to receive a complimentary spot\, please register with the discount code FEEWAIVER. \nRegistration Questions: registrations@mnhum.org | MHC Cancellation Policy \nRegister Now
