| The arts provide a breadth and depth
of experiences that touch our lives and enrich our region. By
investing in the creative experiences of youth, we create opportunities
for the next generation of thinkers and artists to discover more
about themselves, each other, and their community. By supporting
excellence in the arts, we promote art forms and institutions
that challenge, entertain, and contribute to our overall quality
of life.
