This is one in a series of successful Culture Mix events
co-hosted by the Arts Council and acclaimed arts and cultural
institutions throughout the northwest region. People from the cultural
community ranging from individual performing, visual and literary artists,
artisans, historians, staff, board members, patrons, and volunteers of
cultural institutions and venues that offer cultural programming within
and around the 24-town region served by the Arts Council are invited to
attend this free networking event. At the CultureMIX, the Northwest
Connecticut Arts Council will be providing information about its newest
projects, in addition to its current services.
The Phoenix Rising Center is a relatively new addition to northwest
Connecticut’s cultural landscape. Its mission is to create a
collaborative relationship between the arts and communities. Housed in
the historic Seth Thomas Clock Factory, the 2,500 square feet Phoenix
Rising Center aims to provide the opportunity, the place, and the
resources to see, study, and experience the arts. At this multi-cultural,
multi-disciplinary, multi-generational arts center, artists and artisans
work, develop and bring their individual and group talents to the
community through exhibitions, demonstrations, workshops, and more.
The Arts Council's board and staff will also take advantage of the
opportunity to hear first hand from people in the cultural community
attending the CultureMIX about what they are currently doing and what
they would like from the Council.
