Supporting the Arts

I'm making a trip down to Ft. Lauderdale tomorrow to check out an Arts District. It never ceases to amaze me how some communities embrace the arts while others don't have a clue. Arts districts, with restaurants and coffee shops mingled in, help create economic activity within a city or county. It's up to business and political leaders to work together to create such vibrance within a community. Martin County needs to look at these communities and create a buzz of their own.
