We are looking forward to a wonderful day of at the 7th Network convening at the 2023 Northwest Michign Arts & Culture Summit slated for this coming Tuesday, 5/9, 8:15-3:30am at the Mallory-Towsley Center for Arts Leadership on the campus of Interlochen Center for the Arts.

Building on the Network’s new strategic plan, the day’s theme is Create: Connections, Capacity, Communications. Morning sessions feature discussion panels with state and local leaders, inspiring keynotes, much sharing, and, back by popular demand, “power networking.” Afternoon breakouts follow three tracks – Artists, Capacity and Communications – with hands-on tools, tips and strategies. And – throughout the day – there is plenty of time to network, share strategies, participate in session discussions and build community with our colleagues across northern Michigan and beyond.
