L/A Arts is pleased to announce the Place for Makers, a discussion and networking series to be hosted at various locations in Lewiston and Auburn. The series kicks off with Mike Rancourt of Rancourt  & Co. Shoecrafters on March 29th from 6-8pm. Discussion topics include production scaling, workforce development and opportunities in LA. Refreshments will be served.

The Place for Makers series focuses on introducing a new generation of artisan-makers to LA. With support from a National Endowment for the Arts Our Town Grant and in collaboration with Maine College of Art, Lewiston Auburn Economic Growth Council (LAEGC), and the Pratt Institute, L/A Arts is launching a series of networking and professional development sessions that will gather artisans from around the state at key locations in LA to show off the resources, creative talent, potential live/work space, and business support services available there.

Upcoming events are scheduled for Wednesdays through the end of May. The schedule and registration links will be posted on the L/A Arts website and social media.
