VIRTUAL - Arts Leadership & Community Wellness: Building Resilience with Our Communities

Arts organization leaders, please join us for  the final discussion of how the arts community and arts orgs specifically can best position ourselves in the recovery efforts. We will be including area municipality staff and officials and others from major community entities to build some bridges of communication and work toward a cohesive process moving forward.

The Covid-19 pandemic has led to a whirlwind of changes in the arts industry. Many of our organizations, and the people within those organizations, are struggling right now. How do we cope with the pandemic as individuals? What can we do to help our organizations be resilient in the face of the pandemic? Come to this bi-state wide webinar series to learn more, from mental health experts and fellow arts leaders. We will have break-out sessions within the meeting to meet in small groups to further develop what was presented and find unique ways of implementation.

Keep an eye out for some discussion prompts closer to each session, so we can shape the presentation to meet the needs of our arts community.

Topics include:
Explore possibilities for proactive and innovative pandemic recovery efforts from the arts community
Discuss how resilience-building efforts in our organizations can lead to support for our wider communities
Identify potential partnerships with municipalities, social services, and media outlets to aid in community recovery from the pandemic
