Minnesota Rising Imagine Lab: New Paradigms, New Possibilities

"The possible's slow fuse is lit by the imagination." -Emily Dickinson

The Minnesota Rising Imagine Lab: New Paradigms, New Possibilities will be held on Sunday, September 28, 2014 from 1:00PM – 4:00PM at the Minneapolis Institute of Arts in Minneapolis, MN. Hosted by and for emerging leaders, the Imagine Lab is the third in a series of learning labs focused on key collaborative leadership competencies that Minnesota Rising is organizing over the course of the next two years.

We invite you to join us at this highly interactive event as we spend time exploring the power of imagination to reshape our experiences and relationships, exercising our creative muscles and skills in engaging hands-on activities, and elevating the opportunities we have for leveraging our individual and collective imaginations for Minnesota's future!

"The imagination has resources and intimations we don't even know about." -Cynthia Ozick
