Celebrate Arts and Humanities Month in October Date Wednesday, October 16, 2024 - 11:01 October is National Arts and Humanities Month, and we partnered with Governor McKee and RI Humanities for celebrations, webinars, exhibits and programs. The Councils’ theme this year is Culture: A Beacon of Resilience. It explores how arts and culture play a key role in strengthening, developing and creating healthier communities and individual's wellbeing throughout the state. Beacons – like culture – draw us closer; illuminate paths forward; and help us navigate uncertainty. This month’s programming explores how culture can be our guide and provides support to the sector as it navigates our uncertain times, and it seeks a sustainable future.

McKee’s proclamation declaring it in Rhode Island.
