Coliseum in Community
Reflections on the community wide event at the Historic Coliseum Building in June 2025 - the Shine a Light on Her Mama Parade - as part of the ongoing recovery work of Lake Street after 2020.
Historic Coliseum Receives 2025 Minneapolis Preservation Award
The Historical Coliseum Building recently received the 2025 Minneapolis Preservation Award for the “Adaptive Reuse that honors that building’s original design while supporting contemporary community needs in a neighborhood affected by systemic inequalities.”
The Hope of Legacy
As I reflect on this past year, it has been one of tremendous growth and celebration. Moving our practice into a 100 plus year building that was once set afire from the uprisings in 2020 and now listed in the National Registry of Historic Places is truly a testament of beauty from ashes.
Honoring National Black Business Month
We celebrated Black Business Week with the City of Minneapolis. Our development team shared lessons learned with local entrepreneurs.
For Community. By Community.
The newly opened Historic Coliseum Building is a space for the community. Reflecting on the elaborate process to get the funding needed to refurbish the building, there is abundant gratitude for the multiple lenders and grantors who not only believed in the project.
