Many small towns across Minnesota and nationally are in a time of transition because of aging populations. Finding ways to provide affordable housing is critical in making these communities attractive to a new generation. Decisions in housing impact a town’s racial, socio-economic and political diversity as well as the economic health of many small towns and rural communities.

Bill Gossman
I enjoyed my experience as a host for our discussion in New London, Minnesota. All who took part in our group thought it was a good exercise in community conversation. The dominant people had a tendency to say a lot more than the quieter types, but I was striving to give everyone a chance to have their opinions and ideas heard. I invited people with differing outlooks on life and politics and different income levels. Everyone who took part were respectful of each other, and at the end of our time together, most of us agreed that it would be worth repeating. I said that I hoped one of them would take the initiative to lead the next event.

It was great hearing about New London, MN conversation from Bill Gossman. It was both surprising
and disheartening to hear that the same problems of gentrification that I see in Minneapolis was also happening in his town. I hope that folks take time to stop and think about what it would mean to make housing and property more accessible to folks of different backgrounds, and how it could enrich their community.

Technically speaking, I'm pretty happy with how the illustration on the “Affordable Housing Cup” responds to the line, shape, and taper of the form. When I was first asked to be part of this collaboration, I was overwhelmed with the technical aspect of designing a pot that would become a mold and later illustrated upon. Making pots in my studio is such a private act that involving other artists into my process was intimidating, and I didn’t immediately grasp the journey that the cups would take. Six months later when I finally saw a final product as well as images of the pots in action, the whole process really hit me. The images of groups and pairs of strangers sharing sentiment and exploring big ideas made me feel the weight. I believe there are many ways to interpret these images. We all have life experiences to share. Whether it’s affordable housing, the recession, or gentrification. My hope is that through the life of the Democratic Cups, empathy is a primary sentiment that initiates conversations.

Ursula Hargens
Traveling around Minnesota to host conversations for The Democratic Cup: Land of 10,000 Stories was encouraging. Participants were remarkably open and honest as they entered into challenging discussions with strangers. While people often disagreed, they were respectful, thoughtful, and knowledgeable about their local communities. They spoke in detail about the issues and how they were affected as individuals and community members. Listening, as people spoke from the heart, gave me hope.

Comfortable, Light Weight, Good Looking
Delivered quickly, exactly as pictured. The shirt fits well. I like the sweater bottom as opposed to a normal t-shirt bottom. The shirt looks dressier. A good value. I'd buy again.

What a beautiful coat
Size: XX-Large, Color: Navy Blue
I bought this coat to wear on valentines day and I had major doubts about it. But upon receiving the article I fell in love with it. The material it is made from is indeed high quality and the fit is damn near perfect. If your a bigger guy like myself, you may notice the arms are a bit long, but that's nothing a quick alteration can't fix. The coat is heavy and warm so perfect for those nice long walks with your partner at night. The color is exactly as it shows in the pictures and the look is absolutely spectacular. This is a great buy for a great price. I will be getting all colors in the near future.
