Regional Arts Commission of St. Louis (RAC) hosted CULTURA 2023, a unique mini-conference that brought together over 300 artists, organizations, community leaders, and patrons for an energizing half-day experience. Produced by Evntiv, a leading St. Louis production agency, the event was designed to cultivate knowledge, inspire growth, and illuminate the path forward towards a sustainable, thriving arts and culture sector. The conference featured presentations of the latest, unreleased findings from two pivotal studies: Americans for the Arts’ Arts and Economic Prosperity 6 (AEP6) and RAC’s signature research initiative, Creatives Count. These studies provided valuable insights into the local arts and culture ecosystem, informing RAC’s approach to serving the sector. Evntiv’s expertise in event management ensured a seamless experience for all attendees, highlighting the vibrancy and resilience of the St. Louis arts community. The success of CULTURA 2023 underscores Evntiv’s commitment to producing events that not only entertain but also foster meaningful dialogue and growth within the community.
