[TPT’s Legacy-funded arts & culture programming] allows people to experience things without having to always get there and at no cost.

I have really enjoyed seeing familiar faces in shows, e.g. local musicians, artists and restaurateurs. It is helpful and enlightening to learn about my community!

Local community is so important. People need to feel connected & yet we have so many forces creating alienation from each other. Local culture & history knit us together! I think it [TPT’s Legacy-funded arts & culture programming] can be very valuable. Programs on women and BIPOC working/succeeding in various endeavors provide representation that others can aspire to and emulate. Definitely educates us about the history of our land, its people, and the social and cultural constructs they lived in or rose above. And some of the artwork is just dang lovely and enjoyable.

Stage introduces me to/educates me about local musicians and cultural history of our region.
