"Arts and cultural organizations open our eyes to new and different ways of viewing ourselves and our world. Through their creative acts, they stoke creative thinking in all of us — thinking that leads to innovation, invention, and works of balance and beauty. Creative thinking built [the metro Detroit] region, and we believe creative thinking will sustain it. The health and vitality of our artists and arts and cultural organizations play a critical role in the strength of our economy and the quality of our community life."

-- Kresge Foundation president Rip Rapson
