Creative Economy Mixer: Troy Savings Bank Music Hall Photo Highlights

By

January’s #CreativeEconomyMixer was a hit! with over 220 in attendance Troy Savings Bank Music Hall we enjoyed beautiful installation created by Glowing Pictures, a performance by Albany Pro Musica, Signed up for the new ACE Jobhub, and received FREE headshots by Ska City Photography. We had delicious food from Sunhee’s Farm and Kitchen as well as beverages from Rare Form Brewing Company and Schmaltz Brewing Co. We discussed preservation of the arts in our communities and Rensselaer County Historical Society shared the history behind the box seating at the hall, and more! The Mixer began with a Taste of Troy Food Tour and ended at 518 Craft, with drinks and swing music! A VERY SPECIAL thank you to our sponsors MVP Health Care, Rensselaer County Historical Society and Community Loan Fund of the Capital Region, and promotional partners, Troy Cultural Alliance and Albany Pro Musica. Produced in partnership with 2440 Design Studio and WMHT Public Media.

The discussion will be led by Sam Margolius, executive producer at Branch VFX, who grew up in the village and left to start a career in NY and LA, and returned to find a thriving new creative economy.

We toured LUMBERYARD’s creekside studio and facility, enjoyed food from QUESTAR III’s culinary arts program and new Atelier Restaurant and Bar, a beer from Crossroads Brewing, a cameo performance by artist Brian Dewan, and more!
