"Could we ever know each other... without the arts?"

Author Gabrielle Roy’s quote appeared in tiny print on our $20 bill for many years—a profound question for anyone engaged in building enduring communities. Living in proximity makes us neighbours. Shared experiences make us a community. Join us for this discussion on the contributions of rural artists and cultural institutions to stimulate social development.
