Arts and Community Colleges: Vital Partnerships for Creative Communities
Lynch, Robert
Community College Journal, v76 n3 p42-45 Dec 2005-Jan 2006
Americans for the Arts is the nation's leading nonprofit organization for advancing the arts in America. Its survey shows that local arts agencies typically serve their communities through programming to the public, services to artists and arts organizations, and developing and managing cultural facilities. Community colleges share many of the same community development strategies and are frequent arts partners. This article presents several programs that illustrate a select number of those vital connections.
