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 purpose of the grant is to fund programming that celebrates traditional food and utilizes culinary arts, storytelling, and other creative methods to educate and engage communities about their culture and history. This initiative aims to enhance cultural awareness and appreciation within the community.
