Havenworth Performing Arts Center
A beautiful image...
I have been thinking about this "performing arts center" a lot in the back of my head over the past several years, and I wonder...If I don't ever push the idea to the front of my head, will it ever make it out of my head?
So, in the vein of moving the idea out of my head, I want to take a kind of census or consensus about where artists (sculptures, painters, film producers, dancers, ARTISTS) believe their work would best benefit the broader community. How would your art have the best impact (not the most, but the best)? What kind of environment does your art need to thrive (interior, exterior, winter season, spring season, an auditorium or a studio)? Also, what kind of geographical location is required or desired (L.A., Prague, a suburb, metropolitan cities)? And, I feel that this is important...where do you believe the answers to these questions are? What city, state, or country would best suit the benefit of your art for the benefit of society?

All good thoughts Jonathan. The "when and where" is troubling me on a daily basis also for the ideas that are ratteling around in my head. I am considering entering into an M.A program that you should also investigate... Eastern Universities School for Urban Studies... a specific program called Arts in Transformation is starting a new cohort in June. A two-year at-distance program with a few on-site gatherings each year. http://www.eastern.edu/academic/ccgps/ssc/urban/arts/index.html
Keep dreaming up!
