Are you an artist, musician, singer, writer or involved in the arts in Ewing?
The Ewing Green Team and the Ewing Arts Commission are asking all artists living or working in the township to fill out a short survey to give them ideas on what can be done to help promote the arts in the community. The survey will also collect information for a ‘Creative Assets or Arts Inventory’ that will be used as a resource for the community.
“Knowing what our ‘Creative Assets’ are will help us better identify and explore our art community and discover what makes us distinct and sets us apart from the arts and artisans in neighboring communities,” states the Art Commission website.”
“We recognize that art is a source for community and civic pride; it engages people and transforms lives; the arts are a powerful and dynamic economic force that supports key businesses and tourism; it attracts and retains residents, consumers and other commercial interests and brings jobs and additional revenue. The arts are essential to a quality education and help our children succeed as innovators and problem solvers in the 21st century workplace.”
Participation in the survey is strictly voluntary. If participants choose to supply their contact information, it will be included in an inventory that will be made available to the public as a resource for promoting arts programming and resource development. Identifying the people, organizations, spaces, activities and other assets in the community is a key component as we move to build a thriving arts community.
