March 10, 2017 - CAMP Arts by Doug Yetter

Stop Kiss Cast and Crew

 

Nurturing

It was early February when I began to see the first signs of spring in my yard. Fortunately, I’m married to a landscaper who identified each tiny, tender shoot—“Daffodil, hyacinth, tulip…”—and who also panicked about the advent of Spring six weeks early. The first weekend of March reversed the trend and we spent an hour fighting the cold and wind to cover the emerging buds with insulated tarps before getting hit with a “hard freeze.” While my spouse was busy worrying about his garden, I was busy drawing analogies to my life tending to the cultivation of young artists and burgeoning arts organizations. He’s sweating over climate change, and I’m trembling over the possibility of a seismic shift in arts funding. We all need to be vigilant—and philanthropic—to ensure that the arts continue to thrive, both here and nationwide. Many of the groups are non-profit and depend on your support. As Dolly Levi said, “Money is like manure. You have to spread it around encouraging things to grow!” Support the arts. It’s the right thing to do. All locations are Rehoboth Beach, unless otherwise noted.
