We're really grateful to work with ECH, and the opportunity to support our community. When starting the Art Gatherings back in 2019, it was with the purpose to empower our community by bringing everyone together through the arts.
Over time, the gatherings became a vessel to help those who've been left underserved throughout our rural communities. Live music, art, and people supporting each other is what the gatherings are about - is what the arts are about 💜💚
"I have talked about how unleashing the full power of art requires not existing only in isolation or in a bubble. It requires animating work at the intersections of arts and education, community development, climate, and more, including work at the intersection with health and well-being. Helping to animate the full power of the arts requires bolstering what I call an arts-infused civic infrastructure—art (defined expansively) woven into the relationships and mechanisms we rely on to care for each other." -Maria Rosario Jackson, PhD, Former Chair of the National Endowment for the Arts (2021-2025)
