AC+T and the New England Foundation for the Arts brought leaders from across New England together to share strategies for engaging the creative sector and to begin to develop a regional network of creative communities.

The 200 summit attendees represented a broad slice of New Englanders including government officials, arts administrators, artists, business and civic leaders, creative entrepreneurs, funders and researchers.

Participants discussed a potential regional approach for collectively promoting our creative communities through policy, research, programming, and resource development.
