The City of Charlotte is creating the Charlotte Arts and Culture Plan to sustain and grow the creative sector in Charlotte and Mecklenburg County, and we need to hear from YOU!

This Sector Workshop for Film and Media Artists (i.e. for profit production companies, independent filmmakers and other film-related artists, like actors, production designers, etc., and film exhibition organizations) will be hosted at The Independent Picture House, a Non-profit community cinema that screens diverse, foreign, arthouse & independent film in Charlotte, NC. located at 4237 Raleigh Street Charlotte, NC 28213. Attendees will help us shape the future of arts and culture by sharing perspectives, priorities and experiences. All are welcome.

We want to hear from artists and Charlotte-Mecklenburg residents of all ages and backgrounds. You will hear from City of Charlotte leadership, the consultant team from Lord Cultural Resources, and have the opportunity to make your voice heard. We hope you can join us!
