Minnesota may be the land of 10,000 lakes – but at Twin Cities PBS (TPT), we’re on a mission to tell our great state’s 10,000 different stories. Our history may have deep roots in television, but we strive to explore a more multi-media landscape that allows us to reach our state’s diverse communities in new ways with the stories that matter most to them. TPT has served as Minnesota’s storyteller for decades – and today we’re reaching, informing, connecting and engaging with more people than ever before.
