I am Minnesota’s Future is a video contest designed to frame and feature the next 150 years of Minnesota’s statehood by providing teens a creative way to express their hopes and concerns about the future of our state.

The best three-minute videos will be broadcast through various social networks and on YouTube, shared with (and possibly broadcast by) local media and displayed at the State Fair. They also will be shared with the state legislature for consideration, and showcased at the Citizens League annual meeting, attending by over 350 citizens and state policy leaders.
