Business Luncheon recap
On May 11, 220 attendees gathered in the Carnegie Science Center’s beautiful PointView Hall. The 2023 Annual Business Luncheon celebrated Northside Arts & Culture in several different ways:
- Arts and culture organizations located in the Northside had informational tables at the event.
- The main speaker was Patrick Moore, director of The Andy Warhol Museum, presenting information about their Pop District initiative, which will bring more visitors, dollars, and opportunities to the region.
- The chamber announced upcoming plans to collaborate with the arts and culture assets on some exciting cross-promotional and cross-programming initiatives.
The event was an excellent opportunity for all involved to take time to appreciate the breadth of arts and culture treasures that we have on the Northside.
