Creative Sector Summit
As part of the Downtown Master Plan implementation process, several area arts presenters and industry partners have been working together to bring to reality Strategy 1 of the plan, the section which contains recommendations for arts, culture, and historic preservation.
Thousands of hours went into the creation of the plan (online at www.ashevillenc.gov/business). One of the recommendations in the plan is that the creative community form a more integrated coalition in order to better serve its constituencies as well as goals for economic and community development.
The DTMP Implementation Arts and Culture Subcommittee has put together a Creative Sector Summit, lead by the Asheville Area Arts Council, in order to familiarize the Creative Sector partners with the DTMP recommendations, with each other more fully, and with new initiatives in which we can all participate and benefit.
Please plan on attending the Creative Sector Summit, March 16 (for creative entrepreneurs) and/or March 17 (for Arts partners, businesses and organizations.) For more information go to www.ashevillearts.com.
