El Paso’s creative sector expanding, city reports

Music festivals, art, and theater performances are only some of the great treasures that make up El Paso’s creative economy. Kailey Hoppe, a tourist from Rockford Illinois in town for the 2015 USBC open championship, was impressed with all the art and festivals El Paso offers. “I think so far it’s amazing. It’s huge and fun to see. Wicked is in town which is one of the best shows I’ve seen so far and it’s fun to see it come to El Paso.”
