VISIONCONNECTION
The importance of connecting corporate and community leaders, residents, elected officials, locals and tourists to the businesses, opportunities, and activities of the Cultural District. CREATIVITYThe Cultural District will continue to thrive if we consistently offer creative content throughout the district. The arena project, Fortress Festival, the recent KAWS, and so much more are seemingly great examples of bringing high-caliber creativity to the District to make it more of a destination for locals and tourists alike. COLLABORATIONCollaboration is key in creating the most dynamic District possible. The businesses, museums, City, community groups, and residents will achieve more through collaboration. Membership
