Lundstrum Center for the Performing Arts

A few months back I interviewed the Casserly sisters. Well...not all of them. Just three of the five. And there's actually a Casserly brother, too.

The Casserly siblings run a nonprofit performing arts center in Minneapolis for local youth.

Their story is pretty cool. They inherited the center -- The Lundstrum Center for the Performing Arts -- from Dorothy Lundstrum, the woman who started it back in the 1920s.

She was of no blood relation to them, but considered the Casserly siblings to be her "star" pupils. Since she never married herself, she willed the center to them when she died.

If you'd like to learn more about it you can read my finished article about there here:
