RISCA and the R.I. Humanities Council have partnered to celebrate October’s Arts and Humanities Month.
One of the month’s stand out events is a virtual speaking program entitled How Culture Builds the Future on Thursday, Oct. 27, at 11 a.m. Included in the program is a special salute to Congressman James Langevin for his ongoing support of the arts and humanities in R.I.
Hosted and moderated by the Executive Directors of RISCA, Lynne McCormack, and the Humanities Council, Elizabeth Francis, the program features some of the grant awardees of RISCA’s and the Humanities Council’s joint program, which funded operating support to arts, cultural and humanities nonprofits.
