This week on Spotlight, we explore how non-profit organizations are using the arts to inspire, educate, and strengthen communities of all kinds. From a music school celebrating a century of shaping young artists, to a creative center dedicated to making arts education accessible for youth, these stories highlight the lasting impact of investing in creativity. We also look at how public art projects bring artists and neighborhoods together, transforming shared spaces and reminding us that art, when shared widely, has the power to connect people and create lasting change.
