Intro and Definition
Artists and makers are those in or interested in the Delta who are creating with the intent of preserving or advancing the Delta in some way. We understand that “creating” is a very vague term. To us, creating is somewhat self-defined. If you think you are creating something that preserves or advances Delta culture, whether that be music, art, food, movies, books, etc--then you should input your information on this page, so that individuals can be connected with your work.
