We are so excited to bring to you our conversation with Petra Wahlqvist, Executive Director of Nebraskans for the Arts! We are so lucky to have such a wonderful resource for supporting Creatives in our State! Petra has such a fun background to talk about, which has prepared her well for her new role at NFTA. Petra is the co-founder of Blitx, a non-profit, arts innovation and education and engagement community building in Lincoln, NE. Petra has studied and performed all around the world and is such a pleasure to talk with!
So tune in and learn more about what NFTA does for us and how you can join forces! And also, don't miss the event being held by Be An Arts Hero on January 19th. Learn all about it here!
*Upcoming Events:*
