Whatcom Arts Project

Hello Everyone,

Cascadia International Women's Film Festival is producing a cultural arts destination video intended to showcase the various non-profit arts organizations in Whatcom County to promote our area as a cultural arts destination. The idea is an outgrowth of what we've talked about previously in Whatcom Arts Project meetings.

We're inviting you and your organization to participate by sending us images that could be included in the video by June 23. Our plan is to have the video completed and ready for distribution in September.

The invitation and details are attached.

You are welcome to forward this on to other non-profit arts organizations in Whatcom County who may also be interested.
