About

My Northeast and Yours is an video art project by John Akre. It combines a Community Stop Motion Animation project with archived interviews that he recorded in the late 1990’s. It is a picture of place in Northeast Minneapolis and everywhere else.

John Akre is a fiscal year 2020 recipient of an Artist Initiative grant from the Minnesota State Arts Board. This activity is funded, in part, by the arts and cultural heritage fund as appropriated by the Minnesota State Legislature with money from the Legacy Amendment vote of the people of Minnesota on November 4, 2008.
