Legacy on the Block: A Black Business Showcase to Kick Off Minneapolis Black Business Week at 38th & Chicago

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Legacy on the Block: A Black Business Showcase to Kick Off Minneapolis Black Business Week at 38th & Chicago

Minneapolis, MN – July 2025 — The City of Minneapolis will launch its annual Black Business Week with Legacy on the Block: A Black Business Showcase, a full-day activation taking place on Thursday, July 24, 2025, from 11:00 AM to 7:00 PM, centered at 38th & Chicago.

Legacy on the Block is a powerful, place-based celebration of Black entrepreneurship, creativity, and community power, led by Healthy Roots Institute and City Food Studio in collaboration with the 38th & Chicago Avenue business coalition, other local partners, including CANDO, Sabathani Community Center, AGAPE Movement, and more.

The event will feature a City-led press conference at 4:30 PM, with remarks from Mayor Jacob Frey, Councilmember Andrea Jenkins, and community leaders. The press conference will uplift the ongoing legacy of Black business ownership and call attention to the significance of the 38th & Chicago corridor as a cultural and economic hub.

Event Highlights Include:

  • Food Court Sampling & Business Storytelling from anchor corridor businesses like Smoke in the Pit and Just Turkey

  • A curated Art Crawl featuring Plot Gallery, Listen 2 Us Studio, Mystic Healing Stones,Chicago Avenue Fire Arts Center, Wing Young Huie, and other creatives

  • A Cultural Walking Tour of 38th Street led by community historians and movement leaders

  • A vendor market and resource zone showcasing Black entrepreneurs and community organizations

  • A Fireside Chat and Open Mic amplifying the voices and visions of local Black business owners, creatives, and residents

The day begins with a Communities of Practice convening at Sabathani Community Center—bringing together cohort members from the Greater Twin Cities United Way Full Lives Grant to explore collective healing, food access, and Black-led collaboration. From there, the activation moves into a vibrant public celebration throughout the 38th & Chicago corridor.

Why It Matters:

Legacy on the Block is more than an event—it’s a statement. At a time when public attention has turned away from the intersection once at the center of global consciousness, this event calls us back—to witness, to support, and to invest in the Black businesses, artists, and community builders who never left.

This isn’t just a celebration—it’s a platform for Black entrepreneurs to be seen, supported, and sustained,” says Chef Lachelle Cunningham, event lead and founder of Healthy Roots Institute and City Food Studio. “Black business owners can’t build legacy in isolation—we need each other. Legacy on the Block is about moving together in unity, lifting one another up, and showing what’s possible when we invest in our community.”

Press Conference Details:

  • Time: 4:30 PM

  • Location: The Square at 38th & Chicago

  • Speakers: Mayor Jacob Frey, City Council President Elliot Payne, City Council Member Andrea Jenkins, Neighborhood Development Center and community business leaders

Media RSVP and Contact:

Members of the press are encouraged to attend the 4:30 PM press conference and explore the full activation throughout the day. Interviews, photo opportunities, and vendor features will be available.

Streets, Safety, Traffic & Power

Hi Neighbor,


Over the past few days, we’ve witnessed an incredible amount of loss in our community. Multiple instances of gun violence have occurred across our neighborhoods. We offer our condolences to our neighbors, their families and those impacted by this. As our city wrestles with addressing the root causes of violence, there are supportive services available such as the Hennepin County Next Step program, Dont Shoot Guns Shoot Hoops and Tubman, all specializing in different forms of care or violence interruption.  

We’ve also heard from many of our neighbors regarding increased support around litter clean-up and neighborhood cleanliness. In response, we’ve applied for a Minneapolis Solid Waste and Recycling grant to allow us to host litter clean-up walks, educational events and recycling and litter containers throughout our neighborhood.

You might be surprised to learn that the City of Minneapolis is responsible for Chicago Avenue, when Hennepin County is responsible for Park and Portland Avenue. Meanwhile, in other neighborhoods, the Minneapolis Park and Recreation Board (MPRB) or University of Minnesota (U of M) may have jurisdiction over a specific road. Here’s a snapshot of upcoming projects you should be aware of:


Park and Portland Safety Improvements Project (Hennepin County Government)
Hennepin County is planning to make safety improvements on Park and Portland Avenues (County Roads 33 and 35) between I-94 and 46th Street (County Road 46). Construction is anticipated to begin in 2027. (beheardhennepin.org/park-and-portland/)

 Park and Portland are a pair of one-way roads with buffered bike lanes that run from downtown through south Minneapolis.


Neighborhood Traffic Calming Open House (City of Minneapolis Government) 

Through the Neighborhood Traffic Calming process, the City of Minneapolis Public Works is finding ways to make our neighborhood streets safer and eliminate risky driving behaviors. They have identified several areas for traffic calming treatments to be implemented in 2025. Some of the areas they’ve identified are:

  • 2nd Ave S between 31st St E and 35th St E

  • 3rd Ave S between 36th St E and 38th St E

Minneapolis Public Works is considering traffic calming tools like these in our neighborhood.

  • Bollards 

  • Speed humps 

  • Neighborhood traffic circles 

  • Median islands

 Join City of Minneapolis staff for a public meeting to learn more about the process, ask questions, and provide input on traffic calming projects in your neighborhood Wednesday May 7, 5:00 – 6:30 p.m., at the Powderhorn Recreation Center, 3400 15th Ave. S

Visit the project webpage anytime to provide feedback though the survey, sign up for email updates, or to learn more information about the project. Project Webpage: www2.minneapolismn.gov/government/departments/ public-works/traffic-parking-services/traffic-calming

Learning History & Building Renter Power

At April’s Tenant Get Together at Hosmer Library, we watched the PBS documentary "Jim Crow of the North" about redlining's beginning, here in Minneapolis. The discussion that followed was full of introspective thoughts and imagery of the rich, beautiful history of what was here BEFORE redlining - "The Black Mecca", they once called 4th Avenue. One person shared how they noticed the effects of redlining, growing up in both North Minneapolis and the suburbs, as others looked up the area they grew up in to find out if they lived in a covenanted area. 


Check out the map here: https://mappingprejudice.umn.edu/racial-covenants/maps-data

You’re Invited: Renter’s Rights Training Program

Our partners at HOME Line are collaborating with Phillips West Neighborhood Organization (PWNO) to host a Renters Rights Training Program! PWNO will be covering topics such as the ins and outs of your lease, how to deal with repair issues in your living space, and what protections are in place for organizing as renters. Bring your past and present situations to work through with neighbors, get connected to housing resources in your area, and help us envision a future with safe, dignified, and stable housing for all. To apply, please fill out the interest form (PWNO Linktree) or reach out to housing@phillipswest.org.

HOME Line provides free and low-cost legal, organizing, education, and advocacy services so that tenants throughout Minnesota can solve their own rental housing problems. They work to improve public and private policies relating to rental housing by involving affected tenants in the process.

Additional Resources for Rental Help

Neighborhood Government:
Board of Directors

Last month the CANDO Board of Directors met with Hennepin County Commissioner Angela Conley (district 4) to discuss traffic safety, neighborhood connectedness and opioid response (to name a few). We ended with a tour of our new Green Classroom, a partnership between Plant-Grow-Share, Sabathani Food Distribution and Healthy Roots Institute - funded by Greater Twin Cities United Way.

You can get involved with neighborhood governance! Each month, the Board of Directors for our organization meet and make decisions about how funding, resources and networks are connected and distributed across our neighborhood. 

We invite guest speakers and community members to join us!

The May meeting for the Board of Directors is scheduled for Wednesday, May 21st from 6:00 – 8:00pm. Join us at our office at Sabathani Community Center, Room 309. Questions? Contact cando@thecentralneighborhood.com. 

What’s Happening with City Government?

The City Council makes the laws that govern the City. Each Council Member is elected from one of thirteen separate wards. The Central Neighborhood is represented by Ward 8 and 9.

Stormwater Management Hearing

The Climate & Infrastructure Committee of the Minneapolis City Council will conduct a public hearing on Thursday, May 8, 2025, at 1:30 pm, in Room 350, Public Service Center, 250 S. Fourth St., seeking public input into the priorities and programs that make up the city’s Minneapolis Stormwater Management Program (SWMP). This is an opportunity to weigh in on priorities and concerns regarding the City and MPRB’s management of stormwater under the Federal Clean Water Act. At the time of the public hearing, the committee will provide an opportunity (see guidance) for all interested persons to be heard regarding the SWMP. You are not required to participate in the in-person meeting. You may comment in writing by sending a written statement to arrive before the public hearing to: councilcomment@minneapolismn.gov or Minneapolis City Clerk’s Office, C/O Climate & Infrastructure Committee Coordinator, 350 S. Fifth St., Room 304, Minneapolis, MN 55415-1382.  The committee will consider all timely written and oral comments and statements. 

Public Hearings scheduled for Thursday, May 8th:


2025 Alley Reconstruction Project (2025-00313)
Outdoor stadium noise ordinance (2025-00329)
Stormwater Management Program and 2024 Annual Report (2025-00316)

What’s Happening with County Government?

Hennepin County is made up of 45 cities, with different sections represented by elected officials. There are 7 districts total, with each district electing its own commissioner. Our neighborhood exists in District 4, represented by Commissioner Angela Conley. Commissioner Conley sends a monthly newsletter which you can subscribe to online. Our county government is responsible for making legislation and ordinances (rules) that impact public transit, housing & homelessness, environment and natural resources, jobs, healthcare, criminal justice and more.

Current Proposed Changes to Rules / Ordinances

Ordinance 9 - Emergency medical services

Proposed ordinance - Cannabis and lower potency hemp edible retailers

What Hennepin is proposing

(from hennepin.us/your-government/ordinances/cannabis)

Hennepin County’s ordinance would:

  • Limit the number of cannabis retailers to no more than one registration per every 12,500 residents.

  • Allow sales between 10 a.m. and 10 p.m. seven days a week (consistent with liquor stores and neighboring jurisdictions’ restrictions on cannabis retailers).

  • Sets buffer limits within the midrange of the state’s allowable limits at 350 feet from schools, daycares, residential treatment facilities, and attractions within public parks that are regularly used by minors (similar to neighboring communities’ ordinances).

  • Apply to businesses seeking registrations in cities that defer their authority to the county. This currently includes Greenwood, Loretto, Medicine Lake, Shorewood and Spring Park.

PLANT-GROW-SHARE Corner

Annual Plant Distribution

Each year, Plant-Grow-Share provides low-cost plant starts for people to start their vegetable gardens with. Please join us in the back parking-lot of Sabathani Community Center between 10am and 2pm on Saturday, May 10th. This one-day plant sale offers sliding scale plants (starting between $3 and $5) with a limit of 20 plants total per household. First come - first served.

Seed Library Updates

In partnership with Hosmer Library, Plant-Grow-Share hosts a free community seed library across from the main librarian’s desk. Over 30 of you joined us at our last community seed circle to help make seed packets for our neighbors. This year, we have already distributed over 5,000 packets of seeds! This is the highest rate of usage we have seen EVER! Thank you for continuing to support this project with your donations, time, joy and energy. 

If you enjoy spending time with seeds, neighbors and stories then please join us at Sabathani Senior Apartments for our Seed Circles with Seniors on June 11th from 1:30 to 3:30. Sabathani Senior Apartments is located at 3701 3rd Avenue S, Mpls. 


Beginning Gardener Program

This year we’ve been pleased to welcome 33 new gardeners in our Beginning Gardener Program. This program was disrupted due to the loss of Hosmer Community Garden in 2023. Our partnership with Hosmer Library and Bryant Neighborhood Organization has ensured this program could continue. So far this year, we’ve learned about soil safety, companion planting and garden design. Curious about getting involved? Contact growfood@thecentralneighborhood.com or stay tuned for our drop in garden nights, coming mid-may.

Calles, Seguridad, Tráfico y Energía


Hola vecino,

En los últimos días, hemos sido testigos de una increíble pérdida en nuestra comunidad. Se han producido múltiples casos de violencia armada en nuestros barrios. Damos nuestro más sentido pésame a nuestros vecinos, a sus familias y a todos aquellos afectados por estos sucesos. Mientras nuestra ciudad lucha por abordar las causas fundamentales de la violencia, existen servicios de apoyo disponibles, como el programa Next Step del condado de Hennepin, Dont Shoot Guns Shoot Hoops y Tubman, todos ellos especializados en diferentes formas de atención o interrupción de la violencia.

También hemos escuchado a muchos de nuestros vecinos sobre la necesidad de aumentar el apoyo para la limpieza de basura y la limpieza del barrio. En respuesta, hemos solicitado una subvención de Minneapolis Solid Waste and Recycling para poder organizar caminatas de limpieza de basura, eventos educativos y contenedores de reciclaje y basura en todo nuestro barrio.

Quizás le sorprenda saber, por ejemplo, que la ciudad de Minneapolis es responsable de Chicago Avenue, mientras que el condado de Hennepin es responsable de Park y Portland Avenue. Por otra parte, en otros barrios, la Junta de Parques y Recreación de Minneapolis (MPRB) o la Universidad de Minnesota (U of M) pueden tener jurisdicción sobre una carretera específica.

Proyecto de mejoras de seguridad en Park y Portland (Gobierno del condado de Hennepin)

El condado de Hennepin tiene previsto realizar mejoras de seguridad en las avenidas Park y Portland (carreteras comarcales 33 y 35) entre la I-94 y la calle 46 (carretera comarcal 46). Se prevé que las obras comiencen en 2027.

Park y Portland son dos carreteras de sentido único con carriles bici protegidos que discurren desde el centro de la ciudad hasta el sur de Minneapolis.  (beheardhennepin.org/park-and-portland/)

Jornada de puertas abiertas sobre la pacificación del tráfico en el barrio (Gobierno de la ciudad de Minneapolis)

A través del proceso de moderación del tráfico en el barrio, el Departamento de Obras Públicas de la ciudad de Minneapolis está buscando formas de hacer que las calles de nuestro barrio sean más seguras y eliminar las conductas de conducción peligrosas. Se han identificado varias zonas en las que se aplicarán medidas de moderación del tráfico en 2025. Algunas de las zonas identificadas son:

  • 2nd Ave S entre 31st St E y 35th St E

  • 3rd Ave S entre 36th St E y 38th St E

El Departamento de Obras Públicas de Minneapolis está considerando herramientas de moderación del tráfico como estas en nuestro barrio.

  • Bolardos

  • Badenes

  • Rotondas en el barrio

  • Isletas

 Únete al personal de la ciudad de Minneapolis en una reunión pública para obtener más información sobre el proceso, hacer preguntas y dar tu opinión sobre los proyectos de moderación del tráfico en tu vecindario. Miércoles 7 de mayo, de 5:00 a 6:30 p. m., en el Center de Recreación Powderhorn, 3400 15th Ave. S

Visite la página web del proyecto en cualquier momento para enviar sus comentarios a través de la encuesta, suscribirse a las actualizaciones por correo electrónico u obtener más información sobre el proyecto.

Aprendiendo historia y construyendo el poder de los inquilinos

En la reunión de inquilinos celebrada en abril en la biblioteca Hosmer, vimos el documental de la PBS «Jim Crow of the North» sobre los inicios de la discriminación hipotecaria aquí, en Minneapolis. El debate que siguió estuvo lleno de reflexiones introspectivas e imágenes de la rica y hermosa historia de lo que había aquí ANTES de la discriminación hipotecaria: «La Meca negra», como se llamaba antiguamente a la 4ª Avenida. Una persona compartió cómo se dio cuenta de los efectos de la discriminación hipotecaria al crecer tanto en el norte de Minneapolis como en los suburbios, mientras que otros buscaron la zona en la que crecieron para averiguar si vivían en una zona sujeta a un convenio.

Echa un vistazo al mapa aquí: https://mappingprejudice.umn.edu/racial-covenants/maps-data

Estás invitado: Programa de formación sobre los derechos de los inquilinos

Nuestros socios de HOME Line están colaborando con la Organización del Barrio Phillips West (PWNO) para organizar un programa de formación sobre los derechos de los inquilinos. La PWNO tratará temas como los entresijos de los contratos de alquiler, cómo abordar los problemas de reparación en su vivienda y qué protecciones existen para organizarse como inquilinos. Traiga sus situaciones pasadas y presentes para analizarlas con sus vecinos, conéctese con los recursos de vivienda de su zona y ayúdenos a imaginar un futuro con viviendas seguras, dignas y estables para todos. Para inscribirse, rellene el formulario de interés en el enlace de nuestra biografía o póngase en contacto con nosotros en housing@phillipswest.org.

HOME Line ofrece servicios gratuitos y de bajo costo en materia de asesoramiento legal, organización, educación y defensa para que los inquilinos de todo Minnesota puedan resolver sus propios problemas de alquiler. Trabajan para mejorar las políticas públicas y privadas relacionadas con la vivienda de alquiler, involucrando a los inquilinos afectados en el proceso.

Llame a la línea directa para inquilinos: 612-728-5767 o envíe un correo electrónico a un abogado: https://homelinemn.org/e-mail-an-attorney/

Gobierno del barrio: Junta Directiva

El mes pasado, la Junta Directiva se reunió con la comisionada del condado de Hennepin, Angela Conley (distrito 4), para hablar sobre la seguridad vial, la conexión entre vecinos y la respuesta a los opioides (por nombrar algunos temas). Terminamos con una visita a nuestra nueva Aula Verde, una colaboración entre Plant-Grow-Share, Sabathani Food Distribution y Healthy Roots Institute, financiada por Greater Twin Cities United Way.

¡Usted puede participar en la gobernanza del barrio! Cada mes, la junta directiva de nuestra organización se reúne y toma decisiones sobre cómo se conectan y distribuyen los fondos, los recursos y las redes en nuestro vecindario.

¡Invitamos a ponentes invitados y miembros de la comunidad a unirse a nosotros!

La reunión de mayo de la junta directiva está programada para el miércoles 21 de mayo de 6:00 a 8:00 p. m. Únase a nosotros en nuestra oficina del Sabathani Community Center, sala 309. ¿Tiene alguna pregunta? Póngase en contacto con cando@thecentralneighborhood.com.

¿Qué está pasando con el gobierno municipal?

El Ayuntamiento elabora las leyes que rigen la ciudad. Cada concejal es elegido en uno de los trece distritos independientes. El barrio central está representado por los distritos 8 y 9.

Fourth St., con el fin de recabar la opinión del público sobre las prioridades y los programas que conforman el Programa de Gestión de Aguas Pluviales de Minneapolis (SWMP). Se trata de una oportunidad para opinar sobre las prioridades y las preocupaciones relativas a la gestión de las aguas pluviales por parte de la ciudad y la MPRB en virtud de la Ley Federal de Agua Limpia. Durante la audiencia pública, el comité ofrecerá a todas las personas interesadas la oportunidad (véase la guía) de expresar su opinión sobre el SWMP. No es necesario que participe en la reunión presencial. Puede enviar sus comentarios por escrito antes de la audiencia pública a: councilcomment@minneapolismn.gov o a la Oficina del Secretario Municipal de Minneapolis, a la atención del Coordinador del Comité de Clima e Infraestructura, 350 S.

El condado de Hennepin está formado por 45 ciudades, con diferentes secciones representadas por funcionarios electos. Hay un total de 7 distritos, y cada uno elige a su propio comisionado. Nuestro barrio se encuentra en el Distrito 4, representado por la comisionada Angela Conley.

La comisionada Conley envía un boletín mensual al que puede suscribirse en línea. El gobierno de nuestro condado es responsable de elaborar leyes y ordenanzas (normas) que afectan al transporte público, la vivienda y las personas sin hogar, el medio ambiente y los recursos naturales, el empleo, la atención sanitaria, la justicia penal y mucho más.

Cambios propuestos actualmente a las normas/ordenanzas

Ordenanza 9: Servicios médicos de emergencia

Lo que propone Hennepin

traducido de www.hennepin.us/your-government/ordinances/cannabis

La ordenanza del Condado de Hennepin:

  • Limitar el número de minoristas de cannabis a no más de un registro por cada 12,500 residentes.

  • Permitir las ventas entre las 10 a.m. y las 10 p.m., los siete días de la semana (de acuerdo con las restricciones de las licorerías y las jurisdicciones vecinas sobre los minoristas de cannabis).

  • Establece límites de amortiguamiento dentro del rango medio de los límites permitidos del estado a 350 pies de escuelas, guarderías, instalaciones de tratamiento residencial y atracciones dentro de parques públicos que son utilizados regularmente por menores (similar a las ordenanzas de las comunidades vecinas).

Programa para jardineros principiantes

Este año estamos encantados de dar la bienvenida a 33 nuevos jardineros a nuestro programa para jardineros principiantes. Este programa se interrumpió debido a la pérdida del Hosmer Community Garden en 2023. Nuestra colaboración con la biblioteca Hosmer y la organización Bryant Neighborhood Organization ha garantizado la continuidad del programa. En lo que va de año, hemos aprendido sobre la seguridad del suelo, los cultivos asociados y el diseño de jardines. ¿Le interesa participar? Póngase en contacto con growfood@thecentralneighborhood.com o esté atento a nuestras noches de jardinería, que tendrán lugar a mediados de mayo.
