About this grant
This grant to Creative Many Michigan will support a panel session—Water Insights from the Great Lakes State—at the South by Southwest Conference in Austin, Texas. Panelists will highlight topics important not only to Michigan residents but issues that have national implications including water infrastructure and the fresh water quality of the Great Lakes. Panelists will also host a discussion session for a deeper dive into the topics and issues raised during the panel. The conference draws a broad audience of artists, creators, entrepreneurs and technology professionals working toward new solutions for challenges facing communities across the country.
