Project Overview

Like a tweet for the airwaves; it’s 90 seconds of lifelong learning with a rock and roll sound track. Going beyond the standard “concert calendar”, the Weekend Hit List is the ultimate weekly guide to where you should hang out, rock out, museum-crawl or dance 'til you drop in Minnesota providing the contextual, historical and artistic significance behind your plans for the weekend. It’s the ultimate audio guide to the weekend for a diverse, connected and mobile Minnesota. The Weekend Hit List will increase Minnesotans participation in arts and culture by increasing the knowledge and awareness of the way Minnesota’s rich veins of art, of history and of culture affect our daily lives . . . especially on the weekend.
