About this Event
Join the San Bernardino Arts Collaborative and community partners for an important public conversation on the future of arts, culture, and the creative economy in San Bernardino’s First Ward.
The Creative Economy First Ward Candidate Forum will bring together First Ward City Council candidates, artists, cultural leaders, entrepreneurs, educators, and residents to discuss how arts and culture contribute to economic development, community identity, neighborhood revitalization, and quality of life in San Bernardino.
This forum offers the community an opportunity to hear directly from candidates about their vision for supporting the creative sector and investing in vibrant, connected neighborhoods through arts and culture.
Whether you are an artist, creative entrepreneur, student, educator, advocate, or engaged resident, your participation matters.
