Hmong Cultural Center has big plans for our Museum and Library going forward! Our hope is to build a one of a kind educational and research institution that will attract residents of Minneapolis-St. Paul and visitors to the area to learn about the Hmong Minnesotan experience and Hmong history and culture. With this goal in mind, we are currently seeking funding support to continue to accomplish the following ongoing goals:
- The Implementation of a Comprehensive Marketing Plan to enable our center to bring in sizable numbers of visitors interested in learning about Hmong culture and history to the Frogtown neighborhood located on the Green Line LRT in Saint Paul.
- Efforts to raise grant funds for the continued expansion of an exciting audio-visual educational component to our exhibit center in which visitors can watch and listen to Qeej instrument songs and orally recited Wedding and Funeral songs taught at Hmong Cultural Center as well as performances of other traditional Hmong musical instruments including the Two-String Violin, Flute and Ncas (Mouth Harp). Visitors will also be able to take virtual quizzes on what they learned about Hmong culture and history after visiting our museum!
- A traveling exhibit which can be lent out to other museums, libraries, corporations and community institutions
- The Development of Curriculum Kits based on Minnesota State Educational Standards for K-12 school classes that teachers can use with their classes that visit our museum.
