Yellow Wood worked with the Black Belt Treasures Cultural Arts Center to plan and facilitate a learning journey around arts tourism. Representatives from the Black Belt Treasures Cultural Arts Center traveled to Western North Carolina for an itinerary coordinated by HandMade in America. The Black Belt Treasures Cultural Arts Center visited arts councils, art studios, educational institutions, and small town communities engaged in creative placemaking. This learning journey was an opportunity for the Black Belt Treasures Cultural Arts Center to gather ideas for a rural arts tourism value chain in rural Alabama and to build connections with organizations including HandMade in America.
