Voices of Region 8: Performing Artist Roundtable

Date: March 25th Time: 6:00–8:00 PM Attention all musicians, actors, dancers, theatre artists, poets, writers and other performing artists. This roundtable is a listening session for performing artists across Region 8 who want to help shape the future of live performance, creative opportunities, and arts support in Northeast Louisiana. Participants are invited to share their perspectives on challenges facing performing artists - including access to venues, audiences, funding, technical resources, and professional development. The Arts Council’s role in this session is to listen, learn, and better understand how we can align our work with the needs of the performing arts community. Feedback from this conversation will directly inform the Arts Council’s planning, partnerships, and advocacy efforts moving forward. This evening roundtable will include light refreshments and guided discussion led by facilitator and Region 8 performing artist Sarah O'Connor Siereveld. Free to attend. Registration required. Space is limited! Register at the included link. *Feedback gathered through the Voices of Region 8 Roundtable Series will be used to inform the Arts Council’s strategic planning and future community initiatives. This series is supported in part by a grant from the Louisiana Division of the Arts, Office of Cultural Development, Department of Culture, Recreation and Tourism, in cooperation with the Louisiana State Arts Council. Funding has also been provided by the National Endowment for the Arts.
