Artists Assemble!

YES!!! The Turner Prize has been won this year by a group who do not necessarily conform to the traditional notion of being artists, but have made arts part of the community. Lovely to see so much going on in terms of the social benefits of art lately and finding more and more people are using creative thinking to tackle community issues. They are not separate entities at all. Art does have the power to change things!
And all under the age of 30, making them the youngest winners of the Turner Prize ever. How wonderful. And for a project in my local area. I'm liking it even more.
