Join the Outreach and Engagement Committee for their Skill Up Session: Planning Large Community Events, a casual conversation over VIRTUAL coffee or your drink of choice with our speaker Scott Schwartz, Director of the Sousa Archives and Center for American Music and Archivist for Music and Fine Arts. Scott has created and organized many large scale events working with multiple community partners. A few examples include the One Community Together programming for the annual Urbana Sweetcorn Festival, sponsoring and managing children’s programming for the annual Folks and Roots Festival, and America’s history through music educational programs for public and home schools with guest performers and musician. Scott also will candidly discuss what has and has not worked for organizing and managing large scale events and working with community partners. Q&A from the audience will follow afterward.
