እነዚህ አርቲስቶች ሕይወታቸውን እና ሙያቸውን በማኒሶታ ለማገልገል የመረጡ ሲሆን ይህም የእኛን ባህላዊ የበለጸገ ቦታ እንዲሆን አድርጎታል. በመጀመሪያ እና በተቃራኒው, የፈጠራ ችሎታቸውን የሚያንፀባርቁ ስነ-ጥበቦችን አስመስክረዋል.
McKnight Distinguished Artists have also inspired other artists and culture bearers, earned acclaim from audiences, patrons, critics, and other arts professionals, and some have founded and strengthened arts organizations.
