What an exciting month of learning and advocacy work with the Philharmonic’s Center for Future Audiences!

Wednesday, March 5th, CFA Director Joye Levy invited D11 Visual and Performing Arts Facilitator Kim Kincaid to speak at the Capitol as part of the Colorado Legislative Arts Caucus, organized by The Colorado Business Committee for the Arts (CBCA) and Think 360 Arts. Also in attendance was Colorado Creative Industries (CCI).

expectations took them to new levels.
