▲ The Civilian Conservation Corps was born from the desperate need of a country in the grips of the Great Depression. Built To Last: The Legacy of the CCC in Minnesota tours some of the most beloved projects in the state and recalls those workers who lived in tents, carved trails, built roads, fought forest fires, planted trees, created erosion control systems, stocked lakes, preserved historic structures, and built iconic permanent park structures that we still enjoy today.

About the Minnesota Arts and Cultural Heritage Fund In 2008, Minnesota voters passed a landmark piece of legislation— the Minnesota Clean Water, Land, and Legacy Amendment—which provided funding to public television stations serving audiences in Minnesota. Its mission is to help preserve and document the treasures of culture, history, and heritage that make Minnesota special, and to increase access to the natural and cultural resources we all share.
