A Closer Look at the Arts Scene
This week isn't just about attending events; it's an invitation to engage with the creative minds behind the art. Artists are not merely creators; they are narrators of our shared cultural narrative. They challenge norms and provoke thought—an essential aspect of our evolving society.
“Art is not what you see, but what you make others see.” – Edgar Degas
