The city of Lancaster, Pennsylvania, when viewed from the outside,
looks just like other small cities in America, so what makes this
city so unique when it comes to the arts? Told through the stories
of people who bring art and creativity to every aspect of life in
Lancaster, this collection of essays gives us a glimpse into what
makes this city so special and a template that other communities
can use as inspiration to harness the power of the arts closer to
home. It’ s a window into the thriving modern art scene of one of
America’ s oldest inland cities. We’ ll hear first-hand
accounts from a mayor who championed public art programs, teachers
using art to bring core curriculum to life, a doctor who sees the
role art can play in healing patients, local artists,
entrepreneurs, and so many more, that reveal what is possible when
the arts are seen as crucial rather than incidental. An
aspirational road map for anyone looking to bring more of the arts
into their homes, workplaces, schools, and communities. A must read
for anyone who believes that art is an integral part of the human
experience.
