RESIDENT, STUDENT, POET & ARTIST

We are the voices of the north end. The north end is a melting pot – a place where different people, styles and beliefs are mixed together. In this community, we thrive on each other’s cultural identity. We are rich in diversity. All ages live here but youth are the future. Raising young minds over time. We are the builders of this community and always remember that you are the voices of the north end.

VOICES OF THE NORTH END is dedicated to raising the visibility of North End residents and community goers. Over the past few years In Progress interviewed and photographed individuals and families that consider the neighborhood their home. In Progress worked in partnership with the City of Saint Paul to identify residents willing to share their stories about what they appreciate most about the neighborhood.

VOICES OF THE NORTH END is sponsored by the Knight Foundation and Saint Paul Foundation
