Essay

Twin Cities jazz fest is the largest annual free music event in the Twin Cities. This is a family friendly event that largely takes place at Mears Park in downtown Saint Paul. This bill, should it pass, will grant Twin Cities Jazz Fest $75,000 to promote Minnesota-based jazz artists at the next jazz festival. Funding for the jazz festival will undoubtedly increase foot traffic thereby supporting the local establishments in downtown Saint Paul. By voting yes to this bill, hence enabling the grant to the Twin Cities Jazz Fest, you are personally helping to bring our once great capital to its previous glory.

There are currently no votes for this bill.
