The Indiana University Center for Rural Engagement will host a variety of new arts and cultural offerings in the Indiana communities of Huntingburg, Nashville and Salem this winter and spring.
Expanding upon programming launched this fall, the center is collaborating with the IU Arts and Humanities Council to deliver cinema screenings, theater and musical performances, exhibits, creative writing workshops, and artists-in-residence programs in partnership with local artists and residents. These events are part of larger community plans to increase local access to arts and cultural opportunities.
“The Center for Rural Engagement and the Arts and Humanities Council welcome the opportunity to continue work with Huntingburg, Nashville and Salem — three communities with different visions and shared enthusiasm around the arts,” said Kerry Thomson, executive director of the IU Center for Rural Engagement. “As we work together to create programming that resonates with each community, we are also developing strategies to increase local capacity around artistic and cultural assets.”
A news release about the arts and cultural offerings is online.
