Why?
"The Arts brings meaning to life, its the spirit of our culture, it brings people together, supports creativity and social cohesion. But, If the arts contribute this much to our economy, why then do
we still invest so little in arts and artists?" Hadi Eldebek TEDx Talk
There is no doubt when a city has a active, thriving creative ecosystem. The economy, tourism, local businesses, wellbeing, and sense of community are all affected by how creative a city feels. We here at XCHC believe many of the problems locally could be solved or softened if more effort was put into supporting our emerging creative industries.
Well, we're tired of waiting.
