Common Ground

Fourteen new episodes of Common Ground. Common Ground is a series of 30 minute programs that
showcase regional arts, history, and cultural events, people, and places of significance throughout northern
and central Minnesota.
Common Ground fulfills the goals of Legacy funding by informing, educating, and enlightening the citizens
of north central Minnesota by exposing them to artists, organizations, and events they might not otherwise be
familiar with. Many of the subjects featured over the past thirteen years have noted that the exposure gained
through the broadcasts have resulted in increased sales of their work, or in attendance at organized events.
Our work highlighting different cultures throughout the region has brought about a new understanding and
compassion among viewers, who now have a better understanding of their own neighbors.
