‘Spot on!’ was how one seasoned member of the Peterborough Arts Community characterized the format and style of the Jan. 28th Mixer Event. Well-attended by the veterans in the arts and cultural community who have fought the funding and promotion battles but are still seeking fresh visions, ideas and strategies – as well as the talented, young at heart who just couldn’t talk fast enough to express their hopefulness and enthusiasm and new skill sets . Every attendee seemed hungry for support of colleagues and the community. Optimism and a sense of ‘what can be’ animated the questions, comments and conversations in response to the ‘Big 3-Questions’ posed. The room buzzed with ideas – re: increasing involvement of Business and Media, of professional development needs and capabilities, of entrepreneurial approaches, of joining forces on projects- in a word ‘COLLABORATION.
