Realizing Arts-Based Opportunities
Artists and culture-bearers bring a unique perspective to community development.
That perspective is what fuels the creation of innovative ideas, trust building with communities, and a focus on equity. Creative approaches differ by place and project, so having a baseline understanding of why the arts are important to community development is an important core tenant to hold at the center of a project.
