Why Liberal Arts? Because, as Andy Warhol said, “They always say that time changes things, but you actually have to change them yourself.” Taking care of Minnesota’s Capital City will be critical to the success of statewide races, and SD65 is the core of Saint Paul. To ensure high levels of voter participation our outreach efforts in SD65 must be supported. In short, an artful approach, and additional funding will be critical to our success. Please join us for an evening celebrating the diverse cultures and artistic talents of our vibrant urban community. Purchase original, politically-themed, art in the gallery; bid on unique items in our silent auction; chat with DFL officials and candidates; and enjoy refreshments and live entertainment.
