This new online webinar series, in partnership with the Smithsonian Institution and the NC Association of Festivals & Events, is designed to tackle priority topics for festival and event organizers. Each week, industry experts will delve into a specific topic identified as a priority in a survey of North Carolina festival and event organizers.

Each webinar session will begin with an expert-led informational presentation, followed by time for group discussions and questions. Additionally, interested participants will have the opportunity to stick around after the session’s completion for 1:1 chats with the presenters and the UPLIFT team.


Join us from 12pm to 1:30pm for Festival Troubleshooting Tuesdays starting September 3rd 2024. Let’s make your festivals a resounding success!
