Event Details

Thanks to a law passed in 2014, Minnesotans have the opportunity to begin voting by mail or in person 46 days ahead of an Election Day. For the Aug. 14 primary, that day is June 29.

Prior to the law a person could vote early, but needed to provide an excuse as to why he or she could not vote on Election Day. With the new system, no excuse is needed. People no longer have to worry about wheels, work or weather when it comes to casting their ballot to make their voice heard.

Under no excuse absentee balloting, people have the option to vote by mail or in person. Instructions on how to vote by mail can be found on the Secretary of State’s website at mnvotes.org. People can also vote at their county courthouses during regular business hours. Voting is also available the weekend before the election, as well as the Monday before Election Day. For the primary that is Monday, Aug. 13. Many cities also offer the opportunity to vote in person.

Twin Cities World Refugee Day is a free, family oriented event celebrating the many thousands of refugees in Minnesota through song, dance, food, and storytelling. The purpose is to provide a platform for refugee stories and artistic practices, to honor their lives, and to raise awareness of the millions forced to flee their homes. By putting art at the center of this event, we hope to build bridges across the current political and cultural divides to celebrate the resiliency of our vibrant community.

July’s installment of “Inside Voices” will be a send-off for Twin Cities spoken word artist Bernard Ferguson. Bernard has been a pivotal force in the achievement of Button Poetry events. While we are sad to see him go, we wish him the best on this next chapter in his life pursuing an MFA degree at New York University!

About the feature: Bernard is a Bahamian poet living in Uptown, Minneapolis. He is a 2017 Pushcart Prize nominee and has had work published in numerous journals and anthologies, including the Best New Poets 2017 anthology. In Fall 2018, Bernard will move to New York to pursue his MFA at NYU, where he has been awarded a Writers in the Schools fellowship. Unfortunately, his most pressing goal is to convince you that fall is a god-awful season. He wants you to, instead, consider spring and the green buds growing on the trees of Minnesota. He wants you to consider the tapestry coming back to life.

Opening performances from Saymoukda Vongsay, Keno Evol and Ry Irene. With musical guest: Laura Hugo Music.

Inside Voices is a poetry showcase series that allows for the audience to encounter artists in a more intimate setting. Artists with exploratory work who may perform outside of the traditional setting of slam are a part of this installment. Inside Voices exists to highlight work that is more intentionally experimental and reflective while allowing space for the quieter emotions, for a more complex perspective.
