Bill > HF2726

This bill appropriates funding from the Arts and Cultural Heritage Fund to celebrate the 50-year presence of Southeast Asian communities in Minnesota. Specifically, the bill provides money to the commissioner of administration to issue a grant to Visit Saint Paul, which will then distribute subgrants to organizations representing Minnesota's Southeast Asian communities. To be eligible for a subgrant, organizations must provide a 10% financial match and plan events between May 1, 2025, and December 31, 2025. The subgrants can be used to reimburse organizations for events occurring as early as May 1, 2025. The goal of the funding is to support and commemorate the significant contributions and history of Southeast Asian communities in Minnesota over the past five decades, highlighting their cultural impact and integration into the state's social fabric.
