From October 20 – 23, the National Innovation Summit for Arts & Culture will bring together 250 arts leaders in Denver and virtual participants from around the world for a high-profile event exploring the challenges, discoveries, and achievements of daring to depart from traditional approaches in the sector.
The Summit will engage participants in two ways:
- In Denver: For four days at History Colorado in Denver, 250 pioneering arts leaders and funders from 12 communities nationwide will come together for a non-traditional conference that will feature workshops, talks, in-depth discussions, arts experiences and immersive game environments.
- The Virtual Summit is a free online event that extends the experience of the Summit to participants around the world by live-streaming three days of powerful 12-minute talks by bold thinkers, and connecting on-site and off-site participants through meaningful discussion. Register now.
