Somali Culture 101:  Cultural Education Workshops for Youth and Professionals

"All immigrants are artists. ...
Re-creating your entire life is a form of reinvention on par with the greatest works of literature."

-- Edwidge Danticat, Haitian-American author and activist

Immigrant populations in Minnesota must explore and craft the ways they will carry their culture forward as they build their community in the United States.  The Somali Museum is your resource for educating yourself and training your colleagues about the rich heritage of Minnesota's Somali community.  The Somali Culture 101 Lecture, can come in two different forms; 

1. Somali Culture 101 taking place at the Somali Museum location:  Groups will experience  a guided tour of the museum, listen to a "Somali Culture 101" lecture, receive cultural training from an expert, where they can also ask questions about the Somali people and tradition
2. Somali Culture 101 taking place at your organization:  The Somali Museum will bring the collections to you accompanied with the Somali Culture 101 lecture where your professional groups and employee receive training focused on the  aspects of Somali culture that influence life for Minnesotan-Somalis.
