Nicki Clark from the Capitol Center for the Arts discussed the “big picture” for the Capitol Center for the Arts. She described the economic impact, the visible growth in Concord and the regional participation in the programming. Creative Concord (part of the Chamber of Commerce) and the Bow schools also take advantage of the programs. The CCA has been looking for a second venue for more intimate performances, and is working with Steve Duprey on a redevelopement project on Main Street in Concord.
