Wesserunsett Arts Council seeks new
volunteers for the Skowhegan Opera House.
Over the
past few years, Skowhegan has been building and diversifying their economy with
an eye toward tourism, agriculture, culture, and recreation. We push this
agenda forward through product development with bus tours, trail development,
and business support, and through keystone events such as the Kneading
Conference, the Skowhegan Craft Brew Festival, Skowhegan River Fest, and the
Run of River project--all happening here.
With
Skowhegan on an upward trajectory, now is the time to bring the Opera House
back to what it was meant to be.
WesArts
serves on the town Opera House Committee that oversees the restoration and
continued use of the Opera House. In
addition, WesArts is building a volunteer committee that will help fundraise, build
awareness, and produce small-scale shows, performances, or events that will
advance the agenda of the town Opera House Committee.
This volunteer committee is
currently seeking new members
that are energetic, vision oriented, and committed to the growth of Skowhegan
and the Opera House. This committee will work closely with the WesArts project
coordinator, no experience is necessary—just a love for Skowhegan and the arts.
