The Mankato City Library received significant funds after the sale of a rare book, donated by Robert Turner. One condition of the sale was that some of the funding has to be used for the arts. The Library Board now allocates funds annually to bring in artists to perform at Mankato City Park. Eventually, the concert series grew popular enough, it required a stage which is now available for all types of entertainment, weddings, church services, classes, theater productions, and a wide variety of musical events.
