Organizer

Students in Comm 3271 Arts and Culture Marketing with Dr. Rosemary Polegato

Students in Comm 3271 Arts and Culture Marketing have participated in Culture Days since its inception in 2010. Students design a program of 10 mini-events for downtown Sackville, do virtually all the marketing required, and carry out their plan for the program. The same 10 businesses and organizations have supported the project from the beginning. Each year the project has reached farther into the campus and town community for participants. As an experiential learning project, students submit a reflection of their learning from this community-based project.
