Alliance for Arts and Culture Arts Summit 2010 panel tackles arts infrastructure
B.C. lacks the infrastructure needed to support the many activities of artists and arts groups, says a prominent developer and Vancouver Art Gallery Foundation chair.
“The appreciation for culture seems to have increased a lot faster than the infrastructure has,” said Michael Audain, chair of Polygon Homes.
Audain made the comments on June 26 during an Alliance for Arts and Culture Arts Summit 2010 panel discussion that explored the need for arts facilities beyond just theatres, galleries, and museums.
In discussing the importance of arts and culture in society, Audain compared how cities historically formed in B.C. to what happened in ancient Greece.
