We had a great time creating the Emerson East / Eken Park Art walk but Sara, Charlotte and Susan (the folks who make up Emerson Eken Arts) are ready to let go of the leadership of it and move on to other endeavors. It’s been a wonderful experience getting to know our community and all the artists who live here, pulling off a brand new arts event that was wildly successful for two years in a row and bringing city-wide awareness to the arts scene in our neighborhood.
There’s plenty of time to grab onto the momentum that we’ve built if other people want to continue having art walks here.
We’re still around the neighborhood and, who knows, if another art walk is created, we might apply as participants.
We have really enjoyed working with all of the artists and community members who rolled up their sleeves to make it extraordinary. Thank you to the North Street Neighborhood Association and Lauer Realty for their important support. Lastly, thank you to all of the artists who bravely and generously shared their gifts.
In artful community,
Susan, Charlotte, and Sara
