ArtsConnect was honored to host Rachel Garmon-Williams, founder of Bridge 9 Theater, as our facilitator for an Artist training last week and it was the BEST time. Hijinx abounded, but we all learned so much too!

One of our organization's promises is to invest in our cultural community. Yes, that means paying our artists for their programs, but it also means providing opportunities to make them more successful (and bringing in incredible facilitators to make that happen).

Special thanks to the Virginia Commission for the Arts for this workshop - but also to you for giving our Artists these amazing opportunities!

Thank you to all who joined us for an absolutely MARVELOUS Artist Showcase!

From magic, to music, to watercolor, to (chair) hula, our Artists quite literally "showed out" in all the best ways. Stay tuned for some video of that later.

Our ENTIRE roster should be commended for their awesome-ness - they are the ones who make the magic (sometimes literally) happen!

And thank you to our sponsor Westminster Canterbury on Chesapeake Bay for making this all possible!

RSVP today!
