“The arts constantly support the economy of a community. The arts bring people out of their homes whether it’s to see a play or go to a dance performance or to hear music…It’s an occasion to celebrate…We’re going to continue to see the arts community in Northumberland County continue to grow and to flourish”–Susan Ferley, Artistic Director of Cameco Capitol Arts Centre

In this series we feature interviews and discussions with Individual Artists, Leaders of Arts Groups and Organizations, Civic Leaders, and Arts Lovers in our county.

Today, Susan Ferley shares her thoughts with Shane Joseph about theatre as a place of community and collaboration, the role the arts play in the local economy, the heightened communication that happens between artists and audience, and celebrating the arts as we emerge from the pandemic.
