This bill appropriates $500,000 from the arts and cultural heritage fund for the fiscal year 2026 to support the organization Sweet Potato Comfort Pie. The funds will be allocated through a grant to the Board of Directors of the Minnesota Humanities Center.
The programming funded by this grant aims to celebrate traditional food and utilize culinary arts, storytelling, and other creative methods to educate communities about their culture and history. This initiative seeks to enhance cultural awareness and appreciation within the community.
