Did you know... • That 89 percent of residents believe that Santa Monica’s arts and culture scene makes the city a better place to raise their children? • That 86 percent think having creative businesses in the community is important? • That 83 percent have visited a museum or art gallery in the last year? Learn more about how important the arts are to the Santa Monica Community at the Creative Capital community workshop and town hall meeting on Nov. 8, from 4 p.m. to 8 p.m. in the Multi-Purpose Room at the Santa Monica Main Library. We’ll be presenting the first draft of the new cultural plan that will map the future of the arts and culture in our city. At 4 p.m., people are invited to drop by, read the recommendations posted on the walls and talk to the planners, arts commissioners and city staff about specific items. At 6 p.m., the planners will make a formal presentation of the entire plan, followed by an Arts Commission meeting at 7 p.m.
