This bill, H.F. No. 1797, introduced in the Minnesota House of Representatives by Representative Hussein, proposes funding for the Somali Museum of Minnesota. It appropriates $1,000,000 from the state's arts and cultural heritage fund for both fiscal years 2026 and 2027. The funds would be allocated through the commissioner of administration as a grant to the museum. The funding aims to support heritage arts and cultural programs, including classes, exhibits, and presentations that promote Somali heritage and community outreach in Minnesota. Additionally, it would help expand the museum’s hours of operation and provide free or reduced-fee programming for schools and community events.
