What was a highlight for you?? 🤩🤩
Last week our creative community descended upon Downtown TC (Official) for the 2025 Art & Culture Summit. It was a marvelous two days of relationship-building, encouragement, inspiration, surprises, learning, delight. The slow-burning creative coals were thoroughly stirred through invigorating discussion, top tier performances, and provocative keynotes. If you were not there, you missed out!
