As a former educator in public and private schools, I have worked in schools where art has been shunted to the back burner and seen how disappointed students are who would like to express themselves through art, whether it be visual art, drama, or music. I understand the importance in art and the community. San Francisco is well known not only for its wonderful theatres and museums, but for the multitude of community cultural venues where one can enjoy the varied work of smaller artists.
If elected as District 6 Supervisor in San Francisco I would like to work with Arts Advocates to bring back and expand Art Programs in ours schools and community. Art allows individuals to relax and motivate people to reach for higher levels of education and opens minds to the world around them. As San Francisco Develops District 6 we need to ensure that we don’t leave out groups and organizations that support the arts, in order to enhance the quality and quantity of art offerings.
