SUMMARY:Pre-Concert Event: Immigrant Experiences

We invite you to arrive early and join us in the lobby for an interactive\, pre-concert experience. Be guided through one of eight immigrant journeys\, learn about the current largest immigrant populations in Minnesota\, and engage with some of the original Swedish settlers in the state. \nEvent Timeline\n3-4 PM: Immigrant Experiences open in the lobby \n• Learn about the current largest immigrant populations in Minnesota. \n• Take an immigrant’s journey-follow their paths\, and see how you would respond to the choices they faced.
