Phil Casabona, Executive Director, Lower Adirondack Regional Arts Council (LARAC)

This episode of Building Success Stories is an interview with Phil Casabona, Executive Director of the Lower Adirondack Regional Arts Council, more commonly known as LARAC. We talk about how LARAC got started and hosted its well-known annual Arts Festival 52 years ago and how he and the staff of LARAC are carrying on the great work to support arts in this area with new exhibits and offerings throughout the year and distribute funding of approximately $100K to individuals and organizations in 2024. Unfortunately, since this was recorded, Casaboma has announced the upcoming closure of the Mountain Gallery, which he speaks fondly of during this episode. Click here to learn more about LARAC.
