CreativeMornings/Minneapolis: Mayor Jacob Frey

Join us this month on June 21 at The Commons, Minneapolis for speaker Mayor Jacob Frey as he speaks on the theme of Wonder.

Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey grew up in northern Virginia and went to the College of William and Mary in Williamsburg, VA on a track scholarship. After graduating with a degree in government, he began running professionally while attending law school at Villanova University in Philadelphia, PA. That’s when he came to Minneapolis to run the Twin Cities Marathon and when he fell in love with Minneapolis. The day after graduating, he drove 1,200 miles west to Minneapolis, his chosen home.

Since his election as Mayor in 2017, Jacob has championed an agenda centered on increasing access to affordable housing throughout the city, strengthening community-police relations, and fueling economic growth through inclusive policies. From a record-setting investment in the city’s efforts to expand and preserve affordable housing to helping launch the state’s only black-owned financial institution to strengthening the Police Department’s body-worn camera policy, Jacob is delivering results and laying a strong foundation for Minneapolis.
