We Are Water

The We Are Water MN is a partnership that formed to tell Minnesota’s water story. The traveling exhibit will be at the museum from June 23 to August 15, 2022. Admission is free on Tuesday evenings from 5-7 pm.

Minnesota is a headwater. It sits atop a triple, continental-scale water divide. This means we are not receiving polluted water from a state with lower environmental standards. But it also means that we have a responsibility to keep water clean–for our communities and for other states and nations.
