The National Arts Program exhibitions are part of the solution to this crisis of priorities. We need to continue to plant seeds for the future, to promote art education, and to ensure that more people are exposed and nurtured in the arts, so the next generation of Americans does not have to deal with the question: why is art important?

I am glad that the artists get a platform to showcase their talent. Speaking of which, Centro San Antonio, a local placemaking organization, recently visited the VIA Employee Art Exhibit, and they were very impressed with the exhibit. In partnership with them, they would like to feature our employee artwork through their Art Everywhere initiative. They will feature eight VIA employee artists in window spaces in and around downtown San Antonio. This is just another way that our partnership with NAP has impacted our artists and furthered their reach to the community. I really enjoy the stories of our employees and how this program inspires them to channel their creativity.
