CultureSpark, a year-long cultural planning process designed to identify the issues, strengths and challenges for cultural development throughout Erie County, invites all Erie County residents to be a part of a vibrant conversation about the community by attending one of four open meetings in September 2009.
The CultureSpark September forums are scheduled as follows:
- Tuesday, September 15
9 – 11 a.m. Malin, Bergquist & Company, 2402 West 8th Street
5:30 – 7:30 p.m. Booker T. Washington Center, 1720 Holland Street - Wednesday, September 16
7 – 9 p.m. WQLN, 8425 Peach Street - Thursday, September 17
4 – 6 p.m. Edinboro University, Room 142, Miller Hall
By engaging in facilitated large and small group discussion, participants will help the county define its cultural future by contributing their experience, imagination and concrete ideas. Conversation topics will include arts, cultural and heritage organizations; how these entities contribute to Erie’s sense of place, quality of life, vitality and economy; and specific recommendations for future cultural development.
To RSVP to a meeting, or for more information about CultureSpark, call 814-452-3427 or email info@culturesparkerie.org by Thursday, September 10.
