To Change the Face and Heart of America
In this unique collection, Robert E. Gard, one of the founders of the local artsmovement in America, speaks across 50 years. His daughter, Maryo GardEwell, collects excerpts of Gard's writings into a set of 10 beautiful, simple,profound meditations upon the value of the arts in communities. Gard's wordsare as resonant now as when they were first written and exhort all Americans to'change the face and the heart of America? through the arts. Gard, a visionaryartist and advocate and one of the founders of the American local arts movement,reminds us that healthy, vibrant, equitable communities are not possible withoutarts and culture.
The Public Life of the Arts in America
Despite its size, quality, and economic impact, the arts community is not articulate about how they serve public interests, and few citizens have an appreciation of the myriad of public policies that influence American arts and culture. The contributors to this volume argue that U.S. policy can--and should--support the arts and that the arts, in turn serve a broad rather than an elite public. By encouraging policy-makers to systematically start investigating the crucial role and importance of all of the arts in the United States, The Arts and Public Purpose moves the field forward with fresh ideas, new concepts, and important new data.
