Leadership Champlain Class of 2008 presented their Big Heavy World project this week at St. Michael's College. They developed and managed a statewide survey about Vermont's music community - the bands, fans, and venues - and gave Big Heavy the report on Tuesday during a presentation at the college. It's going to help us raise funding for our work of archiving and promoting Vermont-made music. Some of the insights were stunning, and many were what you would assume, only now we have proof. Big Heavy World will be publishing the info after we've drilled a little deeper into it and put together the most interpretive report we can derive from the data. Thank you Laurie, Ben, Jon, Cindy, Adam, and Matt - you rocked it!
