"My experience thus far has been [that] people generally have a pretty open mind towards art, especially in the Midwest. I find people there are really kind of welcoming and really into community engagement-style projects."
"West Central is where history and creativity come together. This weekend offers a rare chance to see the past preserved, the present celebrated, and the future being built right in our neighborhood."
"When I was a kid, I read The Hobbit so many times it made me feel a sense of wonder, and I think that is my job as a business owner of a game shop."
"I wanted to help people learn and offer healthy, happy plants. The internet has way too much information, which can be overwhelming for a new plant parent. I wanted to be a solid, trustworthy resource."
“The main thing, in my opinion, would be one single voice that has one mission — that is to concentrate and make sure that we’re continuing to develop, protect and advocate for our downtown.”
"To accomplish these goals, BIPOCA, of course, has a new space for exhibits and selling, but we have also developed a year-long incubation process for artists to participate in if they choose, and we are always working on funding to help artists with greatly needed resources."
“This is the chance for the neighborhood to help establish a sense of pride and identity. And then to also let both residents and visitors know that they're inside of a neighborhood that's active and well cared for and has leadership working hard to establish the association and build up residence.”
“We did all of our homework, and now we just need people to know that we’ve got this great program. It’s a win-win for everyone.”
“This group is for everyone. However, I have seen a lot of transplants, people reintegrating back into Fort Wayne after moving away for a job or college, and mothers or people who have gone through major life changes really benefiting and appreciating this group.”
