119: The RiffRaff Arts Collective

On this first week of Mercer Grassroots March we’re going to hear from one of the original organizers of the Princeton Renaissance Project and the Mercer Street Grassroots District. Lori McKinney is Director of The RiffRaff Arts Collective. She decided with her husband Robert in the mid 2000’s that they wanted to build an artistic scene for folks to enjoy local music and the world of all things creative arts. Fast forward 15 years and they are collaborators with dozens of businesses and leaders in the entrepreneurship movement in West Virginia.
