Shine a Light - Holiday Lights Along Hiawatha

About This Grant

The independent businesses, storefronts, art studios, live/ work BIPOC, LGBTQ+ creative spaces make our neighborhood a more vibrant and desirable place to live and work. Together with our residents, people who work in the area and new visitors who discover our unique neighborhood we hope to grow a stronger sense of community through the installation of holiday lighting on our small dead-end street called the Hiawatha Arts & Business Corridor located on the 800 block of Hiawatha Place South. This project will contribute to better public safety by creating a more attractive and interesting area for visitors to discover, explore, and feel safe walking their pets at night, returning to the neighborhood through public transportation, or patronizing the storefronts or community space in the center of the block. This project will be completed by April 29, 2022.
