  • Minnesota History: Building a Legacy
    January 2019 Minnesota History: Building A Legacy Report to the Governor and the Legislature on Funding for History Programs and Projects Supported by the Legacy Amendment’s Arts and Cultural Heritage Fund Letter from MNHS CEO and Director In July 2018, I was thrilled to take on the role of the Minnesota Historical Society’s executive director and CEO. As a newcomer to the state, over the last six months, I’ve quickly noticed how strongly Minnesotans value their communities and how proud they are to be from Minnesota. The passage of the Clean Water, Land, and Legacy Amendment in 2008 clearly demonstrates this. I’m inspired by the fact that 10 years ago, Minnesotans voted to commit tax dollars to bettering their state for the future, including preserving our historical and cultural heritage. I’m proud that over 10 years, MNHS has been able to oversee a surge of communities engaging with their local history in new ways, thanks to the Arts and Cultural Heritage Fund (ACHF). As of December 2018, Minnesotans have invested $51 million in history through nearly 2,500 historical and cultural heritage grants in all 87 counties. These grants allow organizations to preserve and share stories about what makes their communities so unique through projects like oral histories, digitization, and new research. Without this funding, this important history can quickly be lost to time. A great example is the Hotel Sacred Heart—explored in our featured stories section —a 1914 hotel on the National Register of Historic Places that’s sat unused since the 1990s.

  • Annual Report FISCAL YEAR 2011 President’S Letter
    Annual Report FISCAL YEAR 2011 PRESIDENT’S letter By any measure, this has been a significant year for the Minnesota Historical Society. The retirement of Nina Archabal was followed by the interim leadership of Michael Fox while we completed the search for our new Executive Director. On behalf of all who have been touched by the Minnesota Historical Society, I would like again to express our deep appreciation to Nina and Michael for all they did. Our new director, Steve Elliott, comes to the Society with an extensive and impressive background and we are very happy to have him on board. Steve was drawn to the Society because of its stellar national reputation. His skills were promptly put to the test with the state shutdown and budget cuts. Steve is addressing the challenges facing the Society with the same strong leadership skills, insight and imagination that his predecessors exercised in building the Society. Our state will benefit from the continued development and excellence of the Minnesota Historical Society. An understanding of history – the problems faced before and how they were addressed – is especially important in trying times. The Minnesota Historical Society will continue to illuminate the past to shed light on the future. The Society has a remarkable staff, a dedicated governing board and a growing number of members. Thank you all for your support. William R. Stoeri, President, Minnesota Historical Society director AND CEO’S letter My service as director began May 1, and how fortunate I am to be a part of this remarkable organization. Every day I am impressed by the dedication, creativity and sheer output of the Society’s staff.
