Thoughts
Our world is facing challenges on so many levels, from the environment and global warming, to population growth and poverty, to serious public heatlh issues. This can make it seem frivolous to devote attention to the need for the arts and culture in our lives. However, every citizen of the world needs to have access to the beauty, inspiration, hope and enlightenment the arts provide. Nonprofit arts groups ensure the creation and accessibility of the arts for all people, and philanthropy is essential to sustain these organizations.
