What's Next for the Creative Economy in Arkansas?

In this episode, ASMSA Executive Director Corey Alderdice explores the future of Arkansas' creative economy—a powerful blend of arts, technology, and cultural innovation that has the potential to transform the state. We’ll discuss the findings of the Arkansas Arts and Technology Bootcamp study, which highlights key areas like expanding broadband access, fostering regional collaboration, and integrating arts into economic development strategies. As we look ahead to the 2025 legislative session, we'll examine how these initiatives can help retain talent, bridge urban-rural divides, and create a more vibrant Arkansas.
