SUMMARY:Blaine - Let's Celebrate Minnesota Water / Celebremos el agua de Minnesota
DESCRIPTION:Join Anoka County Northtown Library for a bilingual (Spanish and English) celebration of all things Minnesota water! There will be a treasure hunt\, Spanish vocabulary practice\, music\, and activities with Minda Gomez\, author of Treasure of the North\, the fourth book in the Martinez Kids Adventures book series! The program will be focused on K-2\, but all ages are welcome. \nAnoka County Library strives to ensure that all visitors are able to access library resources\, services\, and programs. Assistive technology and program accommodations are available at many library locations\, as outlined on our library accessibility page. Please call the library branch hosting the program at least two weeks prior to an event if there are additional accommodations we can provide for you to fully participate. \nMinda Gomez lives in Minnesota with her husband Moisés and their three bilingual kids. Their family has created their own brand of “Mexigringo” as they blend their Papi’s Mexican culture with their Mami’s Minnesotan culture. Minda is a teacher of English Learners at a local elementary school. She has taught second grade in Mexico and volunteered in Guatemala\, Peru\, and other parts of Latin America. Minda is passionate about teaching children to be proud of their bilingual superpowers. She is hopeful that her readers and her own kids will identify with the Martinez family and remember that speaking more than one language is one of the many things that can make a kid special. \nWe Are Water MN is a project of the Minnesota Pollution Control Agency and the Minnesota Humanities Center in partnership with the Minnesota Historical Society; the Board of Water and Soil Resources; the Minnesota Departments of Agriculture\, Health\, and Natural Resources; and University of Minnesota Extension.

SUMMARY:St. Paul - Celebrating Ojibwe Language and Culture Through Games
DESCRIPTION:Put the cell phones away and join us for an evening of fun\, food\, and cultural connection. As we recognize National Native American Heritage Month\, the Minnesota Humanities Center welcomes Tony Drews and Nashke Native Games for a lively\, intergenerational game night. \nNashke Native Games centers Ojibwe language\, stories\, and values\, offering a playful way to engage with culture\, strengthen family and community bonds\, and support language preservation. The evening begins with conversation over a light dinner provided by an Indigenous caterer\, followed by gameplay that is certain to be fun—and educational—for all. \nGuests will also have a chance to participate in a drawing for prizes\, including items from Nashke Native Games and books from Native American Lives\, the Minnesota Humanities Center’s biography series highlighting Native voices. One title\, “Charles Albert Bender: National Baseball Hall of Fame Pitcher\,” tells the story of Bender and his passion for baseball – a reminder that games\, in all forms\, bring people together. \nWhether you come with family\, friends\, or on your own\, you’ll leave with new words\, fresh insights\, and a deeper appreciation for the power of play in preserving culture and fostering connection. Each household will also receive an Ojibwe game to take home and continue learning together. Everyone is welcome—families\, educators\, and community members ages 10 and up. \nFollowing the event\, Nashke Native Games will have additional games and educational resources available for purchase. \nK-12 Educators will receive 2 clock hours upon completion of the event. \nRegistration\n$15 for adults. $10 for children 10 and under. Complimentary registrations are available to help ensure cost is not a barrier.
