Allowing Flowers Book Launch

CommonBond Communities is proud to announce the release of Allowing Flowers, a limited-edition book
created specifically for CommonBond Communities. Allowing Flowers features the work
of Alec Soth, an internationally renowned photographer who blends his unique style of
photography with the organization’s mission to provide homes for those most in need.
CommonBond has joined together with community leaders including the Walker Art Center to present the Allowing Flowers Book Launch Event. Guests will meet Alec Soth and hear about the inspiration behind this masterpiece collection and they will learn about the life-changing impact CommonBond has had, on the over 35,000 people served in their nearly 40 year history. The event will support CommonBond Communities’ important work building community, homes and hope in the Twin Cities. CommonBond is the largest nonprofit housing developer, manager and resident service provider in the Upper Midwest. With your help, the organization plans to open 4,000 more doors over five years. These homes will include valuable on-site services that support resident success and independence.
