Programs extended to libraries in the Arrowhead region with funding sources to support these. Committed increased resources to strengthen education offerings to support lifelong learning and interweave the arts into community life. This year management and the board made progress. Developed an action plan that results in clear communication within and between the staff, board, musicians, and volunteers.
