The Importance of Art in Local Communities
The incredible power and importance of art is a topic we’ve found ourselves contemplating a lot lately at Civility Localized as we engage in arts and culture planning here in the City of Charlotte, North Carolina. Not only is art vital to human creativity and growth, but also to social harmony and frameworks of democracy.
