Strategize for Arts Space Town Halls
Be effective at town halls!
A series of town halls in March will be influencing the Dept of Cultural Affairs CreateNYC Plan, and our priorities will be included!
The Coalition has been brewing up the best ways to communicate our top issues and you will be ready too!
