Project Opera is excited to present Belongings at The Lab Theater from February 13-16, 2020. Belongings explores the stories of two groups of children across two time periods who are forced to flee their homes because of war.

Project Opera’s performers will step into the shoes of young people just like them – children and teenagers with the same aspirations and dreams, who were simply born into different circumstances.

Twin Cities Public Television created a series of short videos illustrating the ways in which the creative community gives back to Minnesota’s economy, based on research done by CreativeMN and Minnesota Citizens for the Arts.

Minnesotans are great audiences: All in all, they are 20 percent more likely than people in other states to attend an arts event to be delighted, surprised, educated, and inspired. Minnesota nonprofits serve 23 million attendees participating in arts and culture events every year. That’s more than four occasions per year for every Minnesotan. Young people under the age of 18 attend more than six arts events every year, sparking imaginations, empowering new voices, and building better lives through creativity. Minnesotans attend more arts and cultural events than other Americans.
