| | | CHECK OUT OUR NEW CULTURE CONNECTORS CAMPAIGN. CONSIDER A DONATION! |
| | Recognizing that we must invest in more creative/transformative ways to confront the systemic racism and gross inequities that exist in our region - as they significantly challenge our ability to connect people, places and cultures - we have built Cultural Alliance 2.0 - a new pro-active approach to significantly diversify the people, perspectives and traditions that are reflected in the region’s cultural infrastructure.
As part of 2.0, we are creating a network of some 70 “Culture Connectors” - literally emboding a multiplicity of perspectives and experiences, who, as “equity stewards” can inform and guide our future. The Connectors will reflect the demographics and dynamics of each town, and will be paid modest honoraria, where required, to cover time and expenses. Please help us raise $7,500, matched dollar-for-dollar by Sustainable CT. Go to https://patronicity.com/CultureConnectors to find out more and consider making a contribution ($10 and up!). And thank you! |
