Public Support
The Minnesota Orchestra receives significant funding from the State of Minnesota through a grant from the Minnesota State Arts Board, through an appropriation by the Minnesota State Legislature from the Minnesota arts and cultural heritage fund with money from the vote of the people on November 4, 2008, and a grant from the National Endowment for the Arts.
