Although fundraising for arts organizations has unique challenges—like justifying the need to ask for support from donors for your arts and culture versus donating to the efforts of front-line workers—art in all forms is something that every community needs. This may be some of your lead performers, popular visual artists, or directors.

Last night we attended a performance of Sandglass and Sovanna Phum ( Here too)- the culmination of these two artists working together from different cultures, puppetry traditions , and language. I met Mongkol via his flickr photos and then found his blog. BTW, he captured some beautiful photos from last night.

A local engineer, Greg McPheeters, brought his tandem-bike powered recycled couch to our Trash to Treasure festival last Friday night. One of our research volunteers, Sangye Hawke, blew me away when she posted a photo on Facebook of the board game she's developing about the restoration work we're doing at historic Evergreen Cemetery.

I think at the national level we're always going to have The New York Times , CNN, and The Washington Post to do national investigations, but what we really are threatened to lose in the next year to five years is local investigations and local reporting. Obviously, local civic journalism is incredibly important to me.

It made me think in ways that I haven't before about the relation of art--as expressive culture--to democracy.

From that point, my path shifted.

The little girls are part of a culture, the Shona culture in Zimbabwe, as maybe you know, uses poetry. And, their weapon is poetry. And the little girls do exactly that.
