Arts + Industry Forum Series

CBCA’s Arts + Industry Forum Series aims to educate, inspire an inclusive dialogue, and cultivate partnerships and innovative approaches to society’s significant challenges, such as climate change, healthcare, affordable housing and real estate, accessibility, and transportation. Each forum explores the intersection between the arts and a distinct business sector relevant to Colorado’s economy.

CBCA will host two Arts + Industry Forums in 2022, both on the theme of Arts + Environmental Sustainability. The first was on May 26 at the Denver Botanic Gardens and the second Forum will be on October 13 at TACAW (The Arts Campus at Willits) in Basalt. Learn more and register!

By fostering a community dialogue, these interdisciplinary Forums highlight timely issues, inspire action and raises awareness on how arts interact and influence specific industries. The goal is that the Forums will help foster innovative business solutions and a more collaborative society, one where scientists, engineers, bankers and real estate developers are working with designers, creatives and artists for positive social change. These events also shed light on how businesses can further their economic opportunity development through arts partnerships, as well as foster cross-sector understanding and collaboration.
