Produced by the Fitchburg Cultural Alliance and its partners, Sitka Creations and NewVue Communities, this directory will promote the diverse cultural organizations, individual artists of all media, and art-supporting businesses to an estimated audience of 20,000 or more in the North Central Massachusetts region. The finished directory is slated to be published in June 2021. A printed version will be free and distributed to libraries, museums, galleries, visitor centers, and coffee shops throughout the region. A digital version will be shared extensively on social media platforms and e-mail marketing. We hope this directory will be a vital link to you and your organization. |
