SUMMARY:St. Paul – Shakespeare in Our Parks: Twelfth Night
DESCRIPTION:The Minnesota Humanities Center (MHC) is delighted to host Classical Actors Ensemble during their 10th season of Shakespeare in Our Parks! Join us on the MHC lawn as we cheer\, laugh\, and swoon at this year’s production: “Twelfth Night\, or What You Will.” This romantic comedy presents the misadventures of shipwrecked twins who separately wash ashore in a distant land\, each thinking the other dead\, and soon become entangled in an unrequited love triangle of noble bon vivants. \nPicnics\, lawn chairs\, sun umbrellas\, and blankets are welcome. Note that the performance is in an open field with minimal shade. Please plan accordingly. Can’t make it on July 14? Check out Classical Actors Ensemble’s full calendar for other performances across the Twin Cities this summer. \nFrom Classical Actors Ensemble: “The Theater is a sacred place. It is a public forum where actors and audience gather to contemplate what it means to be human. Shakespeare and his contemporaries grappled with that question in some of the English language’s best poetry\, leaving behind a canon of compelling stories with universal themes that provide invigorating challenge for actors and an awe-inspiring legacy for audiences. Classical Actors Ensemble performs the plays of the English Renaissance as they were originally intended: as popular entertainment for everyone. By demonstrating why these works of art are considered classic\, we freshly prove their relevance in today’s world.” \nRegistration\nRegistration is encouraged\, but not required. There is no cost to attend. \nRegister Now

SUMMARY:St. Paul – Headscarf Story Circle Gathering – The Nibi Walk
DESCRIPTION:The Minnesota Humanities Center (MHC) is excited to host Headscarf Story Circle – a series of offerings that recognizes the strength and resiliency of women. Join us as we gather together through the shared connection of the headscarf and its complexity. Guests are encouraged to wear a headscarf or head dress that is symbolic of anything from a fashion statement\, cultural identity\, health related\, or memories\, and beliefs. \nThe July 28 Headscarf Story Circle Gathering will feature the Nibi Walk and its healing connectedness to women. Join us for this remarkable immersive experience guided by Sharon Day\, leader of Nibi Walks and Executive Director of the Indigenous People’s Task Force. This special Nibi Walk has been tailored to include a short physical walk from the Minnesota Humanities Center (MHC) over to Lake Phalen where the water ritual will take place and then participants will return to MHC for reflections. Please dress for the weather and wear comfortable walking shoes. The walk from MHC to Lake Phalen will be 5-8 minutes. To prepare and understand with greater respect\, please visit the Nibi Walk website. \nTo learn more about Headscarf Story Circle\, watch our program video. \n \nRegistration\nThere is no cost to attend this event\, but registration is required.  \nRegistration Questions: registrations@mnhum.org  \nRegister Now
