I come away from an encounter with the Alliance of Artists Communities with an enhanced appreciation for my colleagues. I have learned something; I have been challenged in my views; I have gained resolve to hone the efforts that further our mission; I have shared ideas with others. I have been reminded that my organization is not alone in its efforts to offer blessed sanctuary to the cultural flamekeepers among us. I carry a greater resolve that what we do matters. For this, the Alliance is essential.
