Angela Seals, Executive Director-Cultural Office of the Pikes Peak Region (COPPR) | ARTS MONTH 2024!
The Cultural Office of the Pikes Peak Region (a.k.a. COPPR) is the nonprofit local arts agency that serves the City of Colorado Springs and the greater Pikes Peak region (El Paso and Teller Counties) in Colorado. We work to ensure that the creative sector grows in economic vitality and depth of impact, that creative workers can thrive in our community, and that the arts are leveraged to positively address regional economic development, education, cultural tourism, and quality of life.
Executive Director, Angela Seals, and Program Manager for Creative Economy, Dylan Craddock join host Dirk Hobbs for an hour-long discussion on the significance of a strong arts scene and culture as it relates to economic vitality, patron investment, the recruitment and retention of new companies, and our overall community health and wellness.
