The Big Canvas in West Conshohocken

The Big Canvas will ask the region's citizens how they use its arts and culture assets, how they value them, what steps they'd favor to preserve and enhance them, and how they'd be willing to pay for all this.

The goal: A  regional cultural strategy that citizens will support because they helped craft it, a strategy that reflects their values.  The yield from this initiative will be presented to political leaders at a Big Canvas Confab in the fall.

Help us paint the Big Canvas well.

When: 6:30 to 9:30 p.m. July 16

Where: The Inquirer's suburban headquarters, The Schuylkill Printing Plan, 800 River Rd., West Conshohocken
