NatGreene - Nathanael Greene Historical Foundation

Greensboro has been involved in a number of Art and Community centric activities since the early 70's.  In 1994, The Nathanael Greene Historical Foundation (NGHF) was recognized as a formal 501 (c)3 chartered with the support and preservation of cultural activities and history in the area.  In 2005, NGHF refined its scope to develop a well received annual conference and arts festival called the "Creative Communities Conference" and the "Art Blast on the Mon". 

Now in 2008, the Creative Communities has been expanded to a series of Monthly Seminars known as "Second Saturdays" designed  to discuss emerging activities and developments in sustainable communities, arts education, networks, co-op marketing and a number of growing areas valuable to rural communities seeking to attract artists, services, and individuals to their community.
