InspireMSP

Invest in the future creative workforce

Through Hennepin Arts' brand new workforce development initiative InspireMSP, we're connecting youth to real creative careers at the moment curiosity strikes.

By introducing young people to working professionals, creative workplaces and hands-on experiences, the program helps students see pathways they may never have imagined and most importantly, to begin to believe they belong in them.

For organizations across Minnesota, InspireMSP offers a meaningful way to invest in the future of the creative economy while making a tangible, local impact. Support can take many forms: financial contributions that expand access, onsite experiences that bring learning to life, sharing expertise through mentoring or contributing resources that help students engage more deeply with creative work.

An investment in InspireMSP is an investment in early workforce development, equity of access and the long-term vitality of our creative industries. Together, we can help students build awareness, confidence and connection—long before career decisions get made—while strengthening the pipeline of creative talent across our region.
