Spotlight On Arts & Culture | October 10, 2022 | Double Header: Americans for the Arts & The Bridgeport Art Trail
Hosted by David Green of The Cultural Alliance Of Fairfield County.
In our double-header show in October, we first introduced Randy Cohen, Vice President of Research at Americans for the Arts, and the main force behind the influential Arts & Economic Prosperity Study. This measures the economic impact of the nonprofit arts and culture industry on our towns, regions and states, and the Cultural Alliance is leading the study by conducting audience surveys at cultural events through April 2023. Hear from Randy why this is such a big deal.
Then we invite several of the organizers and presenters of the Bridgeport Art Trail to talk about some of the highlights of the upcoming 14th Art Trail, slated for Nov. 10-13. Hear founder and chief organizer, Suzanne Kachmar, and other key participants, including artist and gallerist Cris Dam, artist Richard Killeaney, and Bridgeport Downtown Special Services District President & CEO, Lauren Coakley Vincent, talk to what’s special about the BAT and why this one promises to be the “best ever.”
