Creative Summit will be meeting on May 29, 2018, from 7 to 9 p.m. at the United Methodist Church in Summit, 17 Kent Place Boulevard, Summit. John McEwen, Executive Director of the NJ Theatre Alliance will be opening the conversation, and Meg Fallin Dietrich will be sharing a bit about supporting a creative community. The conversation, “A starting point for connecting culture with community” is an opportunity for the public to get engaged in the conversation.
We invite our friends and neighbors to come network; discuss the unmet needs of arts organizations, artists, and Summit citizens young and old; and explore opportunities for collaboration among us. During our preliminary planning meetings, we have sketched out the following goals for Creative Summit:
(1) to create a forum for collaboration in community,
(2) to connect creative citizens and artists with business community leaders,
(3) to celebrate arts for their own sake,
(4) to celebrate and integrate culture and diversity,
(5) to foster overall health, happiness, and improved quality of life within our community,
(6) to celebrate Summit as an arts and cultural destination, and engage and empower citizens through creative pursuits.
Join us and be a part of this conversation! The shape of the group and the focus of our energies will emerge from its participants.
