Georgians for the Arts asked all Georgia Senatorial candidates to provide their arts and culture-related platform statements. These questionnaires or requests for a candidate’s platform related to arts and culture provide an opportunity for candidates to inform voters where they stand on advancing the arts and culture.
In 2017, the Cultural Arts Council Douglasville/ Douglas County created its first public art initiative in a community where there was no public art. The purpose of public art is not only to enrich the community and improve our quality of life through its ability to enrich an environment, but also to ignite the imagination, encourage thought, and to prompt discourse.
