History

The building which houses the Cedar Cultural Center was a movie theater called the Cedar Theater from 1948 until the 1970s. In 1989 the building was donated to the non-profit organization Minnesota STAR (Society for Traditional Arts and Resources) started by Deb Martin and Mary Ann Dotson. [2] [3]

A guitar belonging to Minneapolis folk musician Spider John Koerner is on display in a glass case in the Cedar's lobby. Koerner had originally donated the 12-string Epiphone to the nearby Palmer's Bar upon his retirement in 2013, but when Palmer's closed in 2025, the guitar was gifted to the Cedar. [4]

Events

The Cedar is the host to a wide variety of musical genres with an emphasis on world music and lesser known or independent artists. [5] Since 2009, the Cedar has hosted an annual Global Roots Festival showcasing international musicians. [6]
