La Grua Center completed a five-year Strategic Plan in June 2020. The planning process was supported in part by the Community Foundation of Eastern Connecticut and the Montauk Foundation.
This is the core of what we do and how we have attracted and inspired our audience. This section focuses on continuing to elevate our programming and to make it more accessible to a wider and more diverse audience.
Strategy 1.1 Continually Enhance Programming Quality to Elevate Audience Experience.
