About the event
Let’s have some fun for once! With all of the stress going around and canceled fairs we decided that everyone deserved a break.
During this session we will take a nostalgic look back at the biggest and best State Fair in the country – “The Great Minnesota Get-Together”. On the eve of what would have been the start of the 2020 Minnesota State Fair, Minnesota State Fair Archivist Specialist Keri Huber will be sharing rarely seen historic photos and commentary about the Fair. Following Keri’s presentation Fair aficionados Monica Kramer McConkey, LPC and Cultivating Resiliency Co-Leads Doris Mold and Megan Roberts will lead a discussion on the impact of the cancellation of Fairs on the agriculture community. Fair presentation and Q & A will last approximately one hour followed by 30-minute impact discussion.
