Welcome to the CITA Media Page, the page where all the fun things happen.

We've produced a video, taken lots of pictures and put together many slideshows. Here is where you can gain access to all of this work by our team!

We've attended festivals, concerts, and other events. We've taken some pictures of the city of Lowell which we hope capture its attractiveness.

Our Slideshows: Show what the festivals, events or concerts are about, the different kinds of things there are and what kinds of stuff happen there:

Video: A 45-minute video was put together & edited by our team (and with the help from staff at LTC).  Our video titled, “What’s Art Got To Do With It”, highlights what we learned after interviewing/chatting with approximately 300 people this summer.  This is our interpretation of the story.  We hope that it provokes discussion among many in the City of Lowell and we hope that it provokes further change & strengthening of the arts & cultural agenda.

WUML Radio Interviews: Members of the CITA team went to the UML radio station, 91.5 FM to discuss our project.
