What are the Regional Leaders all about?

Create Wisconsin regional leaders are representatives working in the arts, business, education, political, and civic arenas who are actively engaged in advocating for their community's creative economy as a whole – helping to uplift and connect creative people, organizations, and businesses within their ecosystems to the resources and support they need to thrive.
