Minnesota History
To get a sense of Minnesota's rich civic history, check out the MN150 exhibit at the Minnesota History Center —an exhibit honoring 150 of the most influential people, places, things, and events
that have shaped who we are today. It is inspiring to see just how many important global trends and innovations started right here at the headwaters of the Mississippi. For more information visit the MN150 website at http://www.mnhs.org/exhibits/mn150/.
