Create Wisconsin Day, Wisconsin’s largest statewide creative sector conference, is coming up April 12-13, 2023, in Madison. Create Wisconsin Day is an annual gathering drawing hundreds of Wisconsin residents to learn, network, celebrate, and speak up with one voice on behalf of the arts, culture, and creativity in their communities and statewide. 

Create Wisconsin Day, a featured event during Create Wisconsin Month throughout April, returns live and in-person for the first time since 2019. 

Go to www.createwisconsin.org/createwisconsinday for complete schedule and registration info.

Highlights:

— Advocacy workshop, Monday, April 10, 7-8:30 pm (virtual): join Milwaukee Repertory Theater’s Teen Council for stories about the students’ journeys as young arts leaders, what they think of when they think of advocacy, and tips and guidelines for speaking with decision-makers.  Click here for the Zoom link.

— Mini-conference, Wednesday, April 12, 1-5 pm (live), at the Arts + Literature Laboratory, 111 South Livingston Street, Madison: an interactive pre-Create Wisconsin Day gathering with panels, discussions, and networking around creativity, connections, industry updates, and advocacy strategies.

— Create Wisconsin Day, Thursday, April 13, 8 am – 2:30 pm (live), at the Overture Center for the Arts, 201 State Street, Madison, featuring:

The opening breakfast will be live-streamed 9:30-10:30 am. Check Create Wisconsin’s Facebook page for the livestream.

Wisconsin’s creative sector is a $10.8 billion industry, according to the US Department of Commerce, encompassing over 87,000 jobs – more jobs than the state’s beer, biotech and papermaking industries. Investment in the creative sector will help grow and stabilize Wisconsin’s creative economy, workforce, and communities. Wisconsin’s arts and cultural assets are more important than ever to revitalize the economy, develop a 21st century workforce and incubate, attract and retain talent, provide opportunities for all, and help our communities, large and small, thrive. 

Investment in Wisconsin’s creative economy will help the state thrive and compete with Midwest neighbors, including Minnesota and Iowa, who are investing heavily in creative economic development initiatives to bolster quality of life and attract residents to their state.
