The cicadas emerging this year last visited us 17 years ago. What kind of change have you seen in your city, yourself, or someone you know over the last 17 years?
The theme of Morty More Art is the re-emergence of creativity and community. As we watch this new emergence of creativity and community in schools, it is my hope that we can respect and appreciate the diversity of our entire community. It is my hope that we, as a community, can learn to support, understand and appreciate the role that Art plays in our schools and community. Local art teachers are local artists! Local art students are future community artists!
