UPSTATE LISTENING TOUR

The California Creative Corps Upstate Listening Tour took place county by county from late fall, 2022 to early 2023 across 19 counties. Nevada County Arts Council, in partnership with State-Local Partner agencies in each county, presented key information on Program Goals, as well as the Healthy Places Index, and invited conversation on how artists and culture bearers might help communities tackle issues specific to each county. Together, we encouraged input on solutions, and invited artists to position themselves to create awareness around them. We have documented our listening sessions and used what we learned in the development of our grants program, which launched on February 14th, 2023.

You can follow our journey across Upstate California by jumping from county to county here.

We urge local community-minded artists, organizations and municipal and county officials to join us for this pro-active brainstorm. If you are solution oriented, and have first-hand knowledge of vulnerable communities, either because you represent one, or because you currently serve one, please join us. We also welcome those who’d like to learn more from a fresh perspective!
