“Community arts aren’t about art as a sign – a noun, an object. They are about art as symbol, a verb, a process. Our work in community arts is about creating a process that invites individuals to participate and experience the arts on a personal basis. It is, in essence, a paradigm shift from ‘art as product and citizen as patron’ to ‘art as process and citizen as participant.’ It is called community arts development.” - Patrick Overton
