This project, entitled Sing Again, aims to preserve Somali lullabies, originally passed generation to generation through oral tradition, by transcribing them in children's lullaby book and creating website for resource-sharing and archival so that future generations of children can use them.
This project collaborates with 1) Minneapolis Hawthorne Neighborhood Council (multi-cultural/intergenerational); 2) Minnesota Independence College and Community (MICC), Richfield (neuro-divergent young adults); 3) an established network of 20+ senior centers and organizations serving people with developmental disabilities statewide (multi-cultural and intergenerational), such as Centro Tyrone Guzman (Latinx), Ecumen Prairie Lodge, Brooklyn Park, Wabasha County Developmental Achievement Center, Wabasha, and Adult Day Services, Bemidji; 4) community collaborations in Bemidji and New Ulm servi
Adrian Holliday is creating a Black/BIPOC led program that shares outdoor and fishing fundamentals for Black, BIPOC and underserved youth through mini camps. The program will offer mini camps to teach outdoor education and safety, nature explorations, and provide an intro to learning how to fish for local kids. The program will offer a safe space for kids to learn from an experienced outdoor/fisherman and gain access to resources and tools that are not often available in these communities.
