What is creative placemaking in micropolitan communities? And how can art and culture transform small towns into vibrant hubs of creativity?
Investing in arts and creative placemaking is essential for small communities to thrive and connect, and here's the thing - it's possible to turn existing assets into beautiful and valuable spaces.
On this episode, we learn how to do that, plus how to foster community engagement, economic vitality, and a sense of belonging through diverse forms of artistic expression.
Joining us today are:
- Susie Surkamer, President & CEO of South Arts
- Adam Trest, Artist
- David Lewis, Mississippi Arts Commission
Today’s episode is hosted by Casey Steinbacher, Founder and CEO of Finding Next, Ted Abernathy, Founder of Economic Leadership, and Willie Jones, Senior Program Officer at the Danville Regional Foundation.
