Pamela Espeland’s ears must be burning. And in a good way. 

We sent out an email asking MinnPost readers to help us continue running Pamela’s Artscape column four times a week. We started this expanded schedule last summer, to try to fill the gap in ongoing arts coverage by other Minnesota media.

Dozens of readers have already responded with donations ranging from $10 to $300…and thoughtful comments about how much they appreciate Pamela’s attention to and passion for the arts.

All Artscape donations will be matched dollar for dollar, thanks to a matching pool of $9500 created by generous lead donors. 

Thanks to everyone who has donated so far. We greatly appreciate every donation and every comment, and we’ll continue to publish comments as they come in.
