Join Mass Cultural Council staff and colleagues from across Cape Cod and the Islands for a day of connection, collaboration, and shared learning at the 204 Cultural Arts Municipal Building in Harwich. Together, we’ll explore ways to strengthen partnerships between municipalities and community organizations, discuss approaches to public art and cultural tourism, and share ideas that support vibrant, creative communities throughout the region.
All Local Cultural Councils, Tribal Cultural Councils, and Cultural Districts members from the Cape and Islands are encouraged to join us for this event. All other interested cultural sector stakeholders from the Cape & Islands are welcome to attend, as well.
Lunch will be provided as part of this day-long event. Therefore, we ask that all who plan to attend please register so we can have an accurate headcount for the day. Additionally, if you have any dietary restrictions we should be aware of, please indicate that when registering.
We are also looking into organizing transportation from the ferry terminals to the 204 for attendees from Martha’s Vineyard and Nantucket. Please stay tuned for more information about this closer to the event date.
Mass Cultural Council is committed to access so all who wish to participate in our events are able to do so. If you require accommodations to join us, please be in touch with the Public Affairs Team.
