  • Two Year Anniversary- Checking in on Second Stage Amherst
    Aug 27 2024
    Celebrating two years of Small Town Big Arts!
    Small Town Big Arts is collaborating with the University of Lynchburg on a new online course called Thriving Community Arts: Strategies for Sustainable Success. A limited number of discounted seats will be available to those who work at a nonprofit organization. Please email pdi@lynchburg.edu from your nonprofit account to receive a discount code.
    This month we are continuing a tradition. In 2022, Small Town Big Arts was formed out of a strategic planning process Geoff facilitated at Second Stage Amherst in Virginia. Geoff discovered there were few online resources for an organization like Second Stage, a community arts space in a town of 2,200 and a county of 31,000. We check in with Second Stage's Executive Director, Jessy Shipe and see how they are doing. Spoiler: They are doing well. m
