Somerset Cultural Planning

In 2016 Main Street Skowhegan partnered with the Wesserunsett Arts Council to form the Somerset Cultural Planning Committee (SCPC).

From July 2016 to June 2017, the committee gathered information about cultural resources in Somerset County, including those related to recreation, agriculture, the arts, history, community, and more. The committee solicited feedback from the Somerset County community via surveys, open forums, individual meetings, and focus groups.

We used the information to craft a cultural plan that will leverage and promote the county’s many resources to help drive tourism to the region and boost the economy.
