Mission
Project 412's mission is to elevate the cultural and economic vibrancy of the 412 lakes area by fostering a dynamic environment where art, music, gardens, trails, and business intersect to build a stronger, healthier, and more connected community. Together, everything we do supports community building, enhances social connections, and improves mental health by providing individuals with spaces to relax, reflect, and engage with others in meaningful ways.

As stated in our mission, 100% of all we do is for charitable purposes. We have created a series of free music concerts in the park that bring so much joy, healing, and a sense of belonging to our community. Music has the power to connect people, especially in a relaxed, open environment like our city park where people can gather without barriers. We help support local talent and offer various genres to appeal to all walks of life and bring people together, helping to form lasting human connections.
Our ecosystem builder program is a free charitable service centered on community growth and well-being, which is so important in fostering long- term positive change. By offering free coaching and support to new entrepreneurs and existing businesses, we're creating a dynamic and thriving local economy. The future addition of garden spaces and trails will greatly enhance the physical and mental health of our community members, too, while also providing a serene space for families to reconnect. We create free collaborative events that bring people together, spark ideas and share knowledge. By providing a platform for community members to exchange these ideas, we're fostering a sense of ownership and involvement that can lead to lasting partnerships and innovations.
To promote art, music, events, and community in the detroit lakes area.
