14 | It Goes Downstream (Lake City, MN)

The We Are Water MN exhibit is on the road for its 2022 tour. Throughout the year, We Are Water MN will be visiting five different communities in the state of Minnesota: Winona, Lake City, Alexandria, Otter Tail County, and Dakota County. On The Watershed podcast, we’ll be sharing series of episodes that reflect on the water stories of people who live in each of these places. We Are Water has now arrived at Lake City, where the Lake Pepin Legacy Alliance is hosting the exhibit at the Lake City Public Library April 28 through June 20.

How we treat our waters where we live ultimately affects those who live downstream. The attitudes we carry towards water now can influence those who see us as role models. We are Water MN is led by the Minnesota Humanities Center in partnership with the Minnesota Pollution Control Agency; the Minnesota Historical Society; the Minnesota Departments of Agriculture, Health, and Natural Resources; and University of Minnesota Extension, with support from the Clean Water, Land & Legacy Amendment and the National Endowment for the Humanities.
