HIBBING - On Oct. 13, 2016, the Nobel Prize Committee announced that Hibbing native Bob Dylan was the first singer-songwriter in history to be awarded the Nobel Prize in Literature âfor having created new poetic expressions within the great American song tradition.â Shortly thereafter, a volunteer-run group of community-minded citizens formed the Hibbing Dylan Project, a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization.
Endeavoring to create a public work of art to honor Bob Dylan for this pinnacle career achievement, this group has spent the last four years fundraising, gaining permissions and forming strong partnerships with all involved parties. As 2020 ended, a generous donor, once a Hibbing resident, stepped forward to ensure that all costs associated with completing this project would be covered. This important donation solidifies the organizationâs construction schedule and will allow for the project to be completed by mid-October 2021, to coincide with the fifth anniversary
