"We are better preparing our future generations for success in the field and the creative economy. We believe that the creative economy can really help us redefine what is possible here in our region,"
said Executive Director, Tim Deaton-Conway. The Arts Alliance provides a space for creative expression for children in Appalachia, including music, art, and dance.
"I often reflect to the fact that an organization like this didn’t exist when I was a kid."
Deaton-Conway emphasized the importance of giving kids an outlet to create. Author's summary: Appalachian Arts Alliance hosts annual Radio Day.
