"Art enlivens our capacity to see differently, to deepen our perceptions. In gathering a community of minds around a common purpose, art can impart a transcendent quality to the time we spend together. It’s not the number of notes per minute that makes Barber’s Adagio such a communally stirring experience; it’s the journey we take on that raft of music. Sometimes it’s just the process of journeying together that makes solutions possible. Art empowers." — Krys Holmes, Executive Director, Montana Arts Council
