Access to programs like these is why it is important to have an institution like the Palm Beach County Cultural Council in our downtown. A picture of the building they occupy accompanies the article. This is yet another asset lured to Lake Worth through the CRA. Click title for link to story.
Local business leaders will team up with professional artists and non-profit groups next week as part of a daylong summit designed to raise awareness about the importance of arts and culture in Palm Beach County.
The event, which is organized by the Cultural Council of Palm Beach County, will focus on building partnerships between businesses and the arts community to help boost the local economy.
Ben Cameron, program director for the arts at the Doris Duke Charitable Foundation, will open this year’s SmARTBiz Summit. In his role with the foundation, Cameron supervises a $13 million grants program focusing on performing-arts presenters and artists.
