Forum: Idaho's Creative Economy

Forum: Idaho's Creative Economy - REGISTER HERE

Across the U.S., cities are developing music and creative economy strategies to quantify impact, reduce regulatory barriers, support venues, and grow local talent pipelines. Boise is uniquely positioned to lead in this space. Boise’s creative economy is a powerful engine for workforce development, entrepreneurship, tourism, and placemaking.

The creative sector touches nearly every part of our local economy. What would a coordinated creative economy strategy look like for Idaho? What lessons can we learn from other communities? And how do we ensure growth benefits artists, entrepreneurs, and residents alike?

Join City Club of Boise for a timely forum exploring how the creative economy contributes to Idaho’s future, and what it will take to sustain it.

Panelists:

Matilda “Tilley” Bubb, Cultural Planner, Boise City Department of Arts & History
