Minnesota's Award-Winning Dinner Theater Delivers World-Class Performances With A Gourmet Twist
No stranger to the art scene, Minnesota is home to thriving creative communities such as Lanesboro, an artsy city known as one of America's dream towns. It's significant that the state is also visually gorgeous, as its heavily forested landscape, which is monikered The Land of 10,000 Lakes, not only provides a scenic backdrop but has also inspired bastions of creativity such as Grand Marais, an artistic haven in Northern Minnesota on the coast of Lake Superior. Chanhassen, in Carver County, is another such beautiful town that has also inspired a high level of artistry. This is where Prince built Paisley Park, the pop star genius' home and studio, and where Chanhassen Dinner Theatre resides, a town fixture since its opening in 1968.

Worry over ICE raids weighs on small immigrant-owned businesses
Some Minnesota immigrant-owned businesses say sales are down under the new Trump administration. Manny Gonzalez has owned Manny's Tortas in Minneapolis for 25 years now. "When I started my business, it was a boom with the Latino communities because we didn't have a Latino market in Minneapolis [in 1999]," Gonzalez said.
