Havenworth Mission Statement

I wanted to start the new year off with a re-cap of the Arts Center's Mission Statement. I am still developing this statement. I believe it will strengthen the development not only of my own work, but of the work of all that get involved. I believe a dream may only be realized by constant pursuit, refinement, and support. Please, aid me in my pursuit by suggesting pros and cons to such a mission statement, benefits, challenges, and questions.



"Our society requires a Visual and Performing Arts Center that has a high impact on the local and global community, and a low impact on the local and global environment. The center exists to offer artists an opportunity to collaborate with artists, with economists, with scientists, administrators, contractors, academics, youth and more... The center will offer collaborators the opportunity to live in residence and be nurtured by society through the arts. The center is a place for artists and audiences to live in a community where they can explore the wonders of humanities creative minds and energies. The center will be a place for all art forms to come and begin a conversation, to live a conversation, and to become the conversation around the world."
