People in Action appropriation

This bill appropriates $700,000 for fiscal year 2026 and $700,000 for fiscal year 2027 from the arts and cultural heritage fund to the Minnesota Humanities Center. The funds are designated as a grant to the nonprofit organization People in Action for statewide Somali-based collaborative programs. The funding must support arts education, workshops, mentor programs, community presentations, and engagement events across Minnesota. This directly affects People in Action and Somali communities through expanded arts and cultural programming.
