TENDING THE FIRE:

Sparkin' Art Town Hall

“What does community arts look like for youth in rural Ontario during a pandemic?"

On Saturday, May 29th, Sparkin' Art welcomed community artists and advocates to a virtual Town Hall.

Our panelists discussed the effect artists have on their community and how we can support creativity during the pandemic. We also looked at the impact of the first term of the Sparkin’ Art digital studio, and brainstormed strategies on maintaining connection and preventing burn-out.
