SMAHC, the Southwest Minnesota Arts and Humanities Council, does great work in small and large ways to support the arts out here on the prairie.
As stated on their website, SMAHC "seeks to encourage the growth and development of the arts and humanities in SW Minnesota by serving as a source of funds and technical services which enable local organizations, educational institutions and individuals to sponsor and/or create and promote the arts and humanities in their communities."
At SMSU, we appreciate all the financial support SMAHC has given over the years to fund visiting writers and writing festivals.
I receive their bi-monthly Voices newsletter by email, a great way to keep up to date on local arts events and opportunities. Below is an upcoming event I encourage others to attend. Florence is a gifted writer and teacher.
May 16: "Words for our Great River" Poetry Reading and Community Writing Workshop led by author Florence Chard Dacey. For teens and adults. No previous creative writing experience is needed. Dacey will share some of her poems about the Minnesota River from 6 - 8 p.m. at the Redwood Falls Public Library, 509 South Lincoln, Redwood Falls. Free. Registration limited to 30. Pre-register by calling the Redwood Falls Library at 507-627-8650, by calling CURE (Clean Up Our River Environment) at 320-839-2494, or email [email protected]
