The Duluth Children's Museum is a place for every family to learn and play. Highlighting local cultures through new exhibits, programming, and partnership, the museum will draw new audiences.
This grant application will focus on the construction of multiple targeted best management practices (BMPs) in priority areas which will provide measurable reductions in sediment and phosphorus loadings to cold water streams in the Mississippi River/Lake Pepin Watershed. The installation of these BMPs will also protect the existing stream habitat by reducing peak flows and reduced streambank erosion.
The Duluth Children's Museum recently reopened in its new location, providing a firm foundation to serve the community into the future. This project will allow the museum to add two new interactive arts and cultural heritage experiences; Nibi, an Ojibwe language exhibit focused on water, and CreateSpace, an art and maker area.
