The Wisconsin Arts Board convened on September 14, 2024, to discuss logistics for upcoming meetings, including the scheduling and locations for their September gathering. The meeting highlighted the importance of selecting a venue that accommodates board members while also considering the potential for site visits in Madison, a city that has not hosted such visits in a long time.

During the discussions, board members evaluated various options for the September meeting date, with particular attention to the Labor Day weekend. One member expressed a preference for hosting the meeting in Kenosha, while another noted the need to revisit Madison as a meeting location, emphasizing the significance of engaging with local arts communities.

The board members shared their availability, with some expressing conflicts around specific dates, particularly the first weekend of September, which coincides with an important event for one member. This led to a consensus that the second weekend of September would be more suitable for most.

The meeting underscored the board's commitment to fostering connections within Wisconsin's arts community by considering diverse locations for their gatherings. As they move forward, the board aims to finalize the September meeting details, ensuring that all members can participate effectively while also exploring opportunities for site visits that enhance their understanding of the state's artistic landscape.
