Hosted by Arts Wisconsin & Wisconsin Arts Board
January – February 2022
Arts Wisconsin and the Wisconsin Arts Board are hosting a series of “check in” sessions with Wisconsin’s creative sector in January and February 2022. These informal, participatory sessions with people involved in the arts, culture, creativity, and community engagement throughout the state will share updates, connections, and learning within and across sectors after almost two years of the COVID-19 pandemic and its impact on all aspects of our lives and work. Topics of discussion will include:
- Changes to personal and organizations since March 2020
- Lessons learned
- Hopes and plans for the future
- What Arts Wisconsin and Wisconsin Arts Board should know for the post-pandemic world.
