About the Future/Think Symposia Series
As part of DVAA's 50th-anniversary programming, DVAA will present a series of dialogues that invite attendees to take a deep dive into key topics that are shaping the world in which we create, and consider what the future portends for artists and the arts as it relates to the arts in rural communities. 

Each event will feature guest speaker presentations, panel discussions, breakout sessions, as well as integral opportunities to converse and connect with our fellow creatives.
