Arts South Dakota Board Member, Lawrence Diggs
Lawrence Diggs | Using art to bring us together speaker series

Art has always played a central role in connecting people to their communities throughout human history. This project will facilitate conversations in communities around the state about how the arts are playing key roles in their lives on a daily basis. It will explore ways those communities might use art to communicate their experiences, thoughts, and feelings as well as tell their stories. It will engage the communities in searching for actionable ways to involve their community in arts as a bonding activity...

Past Monthly Arts Readers have included focus on: Arts in Health, Board Development, Arts in Education and Arts & Humanities.
