These are the FACES OF FRACC ❤️👩
We are highlighting the people behind our organization that believe in the power of arts and culture for Fall River and the SouthCoast.

Meet Michelle Borges (she/her)
Michelle is an artist and educator working in the creative sector for 10+ years. She is also FRACC's Executive Assistant and Programs Manager.

"I'm glad to be part of an arts advocacy group led by inspiring people like Ashley and now Tracy. I believe the more we integrate the arts into our everyday lives, the better we understand each other and the positive impact the arts can have on our physical and mental well-being."

At FRACC, we make arts and culture a foundational part of how we build, uplift, and move Fall River and the SouthCoast forward.

We can’t do this work alone. If you believe in the power of arts and culture to help strengthen our community, help support FRACC's mission by donating through our MightyCause page [mightycause.com/organization/FRACC] 💞
