SUMMARY:St. Paul - Objects of War: A Storytelling Circle
DESCRIPTION:The Minnesota Humanities Center invites you to join us for an engaging evening focused on stories of community\, consolation\, and courage. For Objects of War\, participants are asked to bring an item connected to an experience of war and conflict — which could be dog tags\, a service member’s good luck charm\, or a family heirloom — and share the story of this item during the evening. Moderated by trained facilitators\, the conversation will help participants understand why we hold on to certain objects\, and how these objects help us better understand the human impacts of war. \nAbout the Facilitators\nJovita Hernandez is a recently retired educator with 32 years of experience. Throughout her career\, she approached teaching through a lens of equity\, nurturing curiosity\, and emphasizing the connections built through the power of story. She introduced Story Circle practice not only in her own classroom but also across the district\, leaving a lasting impact on students and colleagues alike. Today\, she continues to champion this practice\, sharing it in both educational and community spaces as a dedicated story circle practitioner. \nPang Foua Xiong is a creative social entrepreneur\, cultural conservator\, and mother. She is a first-generation Hmong woman\, born to refugee parents who arrived in Minnesota in 1980\, and raised in the Rondo/Frogtown neighborhood on the homelands of the Dakhóta people in Mni Sóta Makoce (Saint Paul\, Minnesota). Her work spans more than 25 years in grassroots advocacy and co-designing accessibility and equity opportunities in healthcare\, education\, and economic systems. Her identity and journey as a Hmong woman and efforts in cultural and language revitalization of her endangered native language and heritage continue to shape her sense of place and purpose. She is the founder of Community & Co Lifestyle\, LLC\, a cultural and creative social enterprise that facilitates and nurtures collaborative connections\, leadership\, community engagement\, and facilitating systems of care. As a social entrepreneur\, bilingual Hmong interpreter\, creative and social impact consultant\, and humanities facilitator\, Pang Foua co-designs and leads thoughtful community-centered initiatives\, creative solutions\, and engagement through the lens of whole wellbeing\, place-knowing\, and place-based learning practices. \nThis event is presented in partnership with the Minnesota Military and Veterans Museum\, an institution which seeks to strengthen public understanding of how armed conflicts and military institutions have shaped our state and national experience. \nRegistration\nThis event is free to attend\, however registration is required. Dinner will be served at the event. \nRegistration Questions: registrations@mnhum.org \nRegister Now

SUMMARY:St. Paul - Teaching Bdote Educator Workshop

SUMMARY:St. Paul - 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: Capitol Region Watershed District \nStop two on the We Are Water MN 2026 tour brings us to the Midway neighborhood of Saint Paul\, where the exhibit is hosted by Capitol Region Watershed District (CRWD). CRWD is a local unit of government dedicated to protecting\, managing and improving the water resources of the District\, which includes parts of Falcon Heights\, Lauderdale\, Maplewood\, Roseville and Saint Paul. All the water in this district eventually flows to the Mississippi River\, and being hosted at CRWD will offer a chance for visitors to learn more about ways their actions directly impact water in their local community. This hosting will also offer a unique opportunity to spend time in the CRWD offices\, which use green building principles\, including stormwater management and energy-saving practices\, to conserve natural resources. The grounds include a watershed learning center\, a pocket park\, and interactive features designed to draw in neighbors and visitors. \nFun fact: Watershed Districts are unique parts of government\, because they aren’t defined by political boundaries. Instead\, they follow the water! Water flows naturally\, so these districts cross city/county lines to provide holistic\, science-based water management for areas draining to a common lake\, stream\, or river. \nAbout We Are Water MN?\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. \nLearn more about the We Are Water MN exhibit\, partnership\, and programs. \nLearn More

SUMMARY:St. Paul - Reading Without Words: Hidden Stories of Ethiopic Manuscripts
DESCRIPTION:For centuries\, handwritten books have been part of everyday life in Ethiopia and Eritrea—used in homes\, churches\, mosques\, and communities across the region. Created and cherished by both Orthodox Christian and Muslim communities\, these manuscripts open a window onto more than 700 years of religious practice\, daily routines\, and artistic expression. But what if you can’t read Geʿez (Classical Ethiopic) or Arabic? Can these books still tell their stories? Absolutely. \nIn this illustrated\, hands-on workshop\, Dr. Jeremy R. Brown brings the world of Ethiopic manuscripts to life\, showing how much we can learn simply by looking closely. Images\, materials\, layout\, and decorations tell stories about how these books were used\, who made them\, and why they mattered. Participants will also have the rare opportunity to encounter Ethiopic manuscripts up close from the Hill Museum & Manuscript Library’s (HMML) remarkable collection. Following the discussion and workshop\, participants are invited to enjoy refreshments. \nAbout the Speaker\nDr. Jeremy R. Brown is the cataloger of Ethiopian Manuscripts at the HMML. He holds a BA in Biblical Studies from George Fox University in Oregon\, a MA in Theological Studies from Portland Seminary in Oregon\, and a Ph.D. in Semitic Languages and Literatures from the Catholic University of America in Washington D.C. Prior to joining HMML\, Brown was the Senior Researcher\, Cataloger\, & Translator for the Princeton Ethiopian\, Eritrean\, and Egyptian Miracles of Mary digital humanities project where he identified and translated miracles stories in manuscripts from Ethiopia\, Eritrea\, Egypt\, Turkey\, Iraq\, and Syria. \nThis event is presented in partnership with the Hill Museum & Manuscript Library (HMML). Located on the campus of St. John’s University in Collegeville\, MN\, HMML preserves and shares the world’s handwritten past to inspire a deeper understanding of our present and future. \nAbove Image: Decorative Bible in Ge’ez on parchment. 15th–17th century(?).

SUMMARY:St. Paul - Art + Water Workshop: Aquasonos – Community Listening with Dameun Strange
DESCRIPTION:Listening is a daily act that is both solo and collaborative: a conversation between family members over breakfast\, taking in a lesson at school\, a podcast that plays in your ears as you wait for the bus. \nWhat happens when we listen\, intentionally\, together? \nAt this evening event\, you are invited to listen together to the sounds of our watershed\, from the ancient history of Como Lake to the birds of Frogtown Farm. Sound scores by musician and composer Dameun Strange will be installed as listening environments in CRWD’s building and outdoor gardens.

His significant accolades include the 2018 ACF | Create Award and a 2019 Jerome Hill Fellowship.

Erdrich is the author of a dozen books in both poetry and prose. She grew up in North Dakota and is Ojibwe\, enrolled at Turtle Mountain.
