More than 1,000 arts leaders are descending upon Minneapolis for the Americans for the Arts 2019 Annual Convention, which kicks off Friday and continues through Sunday at the Hilton.

“Minneapolis has so many wonderful museums, theaters and arts organizations – big and small,” said Americans for the Arts CEO Robert L. Lynch, explaining why the city was chosen. “Probably innovation is the keyword.”
