Their work culminated in a public presentation that shared observations and recommendations from the visit. </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">The presentation was videotaped for playback on PAC-8 beginning in late April and a DVD is being made available for checkout at the Chamber. In addition, the presentation slides, background information about the Arts and Cultural District, and information about the steering committee working on this project are available by <a href="http://www.chamberorganizer.com/losalamoschamber/docs/LA%20A&CD%20Presentation%20ver8.0.pdf">clicking here (large .pdf file; 2M)</a>.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">Los Alamos MainStreet, in collaboration with the Los Alamos Arts Council and Los Alamos County applied for and received the New Mexico Arts and Culture District status for downtown Los Alamos in 2009. The resource team visit is a step in the process for fulfilling the requirements of maintaining that status and developing a plan for implementing the district. The basis for the district is sharing of Los Alamos’ unique creative heritage in the arts and science.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">Goals for the Los Alamos Creative District include:</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">• Sharing the unique creative heritage of Los Alamos with residents and visitors;</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">• The development of the district will serve as a catalyst for supporting and developing service, restaurant, retail and hospitality businesses within the proposed district;</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">• The district will improve the community’s capacity for economic benefit from visitation and tourism by creating a stronger, more focused argument for visiting and spending time in downtown Los Alamos.</span>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4726853480451044599.post-63138312184430978542010-04-17T12:24:00.001-06:002010-04-17T12:25:52.681-06:00State Resource Team Visits Los AlamosClick title (above) for article.
