At a one-day gathering of artists, culture-makers, and creative professionals called ReFrame Ventura County, they're shaping the future of the county's arts economy.
The industry is worth $3.1 billion, according to Ventura County Arts and Culture Manager David Yoshitomi. He's one of the speakers at the event, which will unveil a plan that the local creative community will help to shape.
"There's a lot of industries that are represented under that umbrella of the creative economy there and really impacts our lives in a daily manner, not only from the economic output, but from the clothes we're wearing, to the furniture we're sitting on, to the radio stations we're listening to, to the films and TV we're watching," said Yoshitomi.
The event includes panel discussions, workshops, networking, and an open mic night.
ReFrame Ventura happens at Studio Channel Islands on Sunday, April 6, at 10 a.m.
