Changing Demographics: Free Forum + Workshops
As a musician based in Seattle, I am excited by the ever-changing influx of immigrant artists and audiences. Year-long events such as the Festál Cultural Festivals, which features 22 weekends filled with music and dance from various local ethnic communities, enliven the Seattle Center and remind me of the oftentimes exhilarating social aspects of performance in local and global contexts.
Next weekend, the Washington State Arts Commission's Arts Participation Leadership Initiative hosts Who’s New in Town? Arts Organizations Respond to Changing Demographics.
