Extension Engage: Partnering with New and Immigrant Audiences
The demographic shift of North Carolina is challenging traditional programming and engagement models. The path toward addressing this transition presents many opportunities, challenges, lessons learned, and success stories. Sharing these will facilitate and strengthen our work together to best meet the needs of our changing audiences in North Carolina. To support this work, NCCES Community and Rural Development sponsored a conference in Durham, NC. Listed below are links to conference presentations.

Presenter Beth Yerxa

Have an empty space in your downtown that would benefit from new traffic and buzz? Do local arts groups need more venues to show work, perform, or hold an event? Do new local businesses or restaurants need a low risk way to test the waters? A Pop-Up could be your answer and Triangle area nonprofit, Triangle ArtWorks, has created a new Tool-Kit to make Pop-Ups easier.
