I had one of those 'special moments' when the artists met to show examples of their 50/50 projects at the mid-way point. The room at the Art Center was overflowing with interesting artists, amazing artworks and good food- but I was moved by the mutual support and encouragement the artists gave each other. The Sanchez Art Center began with the hopes and dreams that a community would emerge that would bring artists and everyone who cares about art together in a meaningful way. For me, that evening was a particularly heartfelt example of a dream fulfilled. My thanks to all of the artists and the Sanchez Art Center.
