2024 Economic Impact Report
In Fall 2024, we began the process of discussing the future of Folk School of Fayetteville with Experience Fayetteville. Our proposal included economic impact data regarding the first 17 months of programming during our 2 year pilot lease at Walker Stone House. Ultimately, Experience Fayetteville declined to support the proposal and did not share the Economic Impact report with the A&P Commission. We pivoted to request approval of the 1-year lease extension provision that was included in our original 2 year lease. That 1 year extension was approved at the November 2024 A&P Commission meeting. We are publishing our original 2024 lease extension proposal here including the Economic Impact data.
