Hillsborough Art Scene 2013
Thanks to all that attended our community forum : "Come Dream with Us" ...Creating a Vision for the Arts in Hillsborough on Saturday December 8th.
What inspiration!
More than 75 members of our community attended and worked together in an effort to create a unified vision of how the arts will shape our town in 2013. We'll have a report to publish of our first "Hillsborough Arts Summit' soon. Here is the final report.
In addition we have a number of dedicated volunteers from the council to thank for their tireless efforts in putting this forum together.
Let's not lose this momentum... If you were there, we still need your input and enthusiasm! Join the HAC today and become a part of the future of our wonderful community. Check out ongoing efforts to create a Cultural Center in Hillsborough in this blog.
Our mission is "enriching our community through the arts."
