Housing on display April 17, 2007

A two-part exhibit at the University of Minnesota's Goldstein Museum of Design will focus on affordable housing from April 21 through July 1.

"Twenty-five percent of all American households face severe housing problems. Affordable Housing: Designing an American Asset explores well-designed housing opportunities for the least wealthy Americans.

In conjunction, Leading from Policy to Practice: Affordable Housing in Minnesota will present an overview of affordable housing in Minnesota. Organized by guest curator Marilyn Bruin, Associate Professor of Housing Studies, the exhibition will explore and critique several state-wide case studies of affordable housing projects. A symposium will bring together funders, developers, builders and policy-makers for a lively exploration of the state and future of Minnesota affordable housing."

An opening party is scheduled for April 20, from 6 to 8 pm.

Check the Goldstein's website for more information and directions.
