Indigenous people focus of new “Movies and Music” series

Indigenous artists, filmmakers, producers and actors will be showcased this summer in a four-part music and movies series at Father Hennepin Bluffs Park in Minneapolis. The series is hosted by the Minneapolis Park and Recreation Board, Migizi Communications and the First Nations Composer Initiative.

The music and movie series will take place on the banks of the Mississippi River and highlight the St. Anthony Falls area which was and is sacred to the Dakota. The Dakota had a variety of names for St. Anthony Falls including "O-Wa-Mni" (whirlpool) or “Ha-Ha Tanka” (waterfall). When Father Louis Hennepin saw the falls in 1680 he renamed them in honor of his patron saint, Anthony of Padua. The falls is the only water fall on the entire length of the Mississippi River and served as the catalyst for the development of Minneapolis.

Location: Father Hennepin Bluffs Park, St Anthony Main, Stone Arch Bridge
(In collaboration with the MPLS Parks and Recreation Board and Migizii Communications)
