\u201cArt-making is the context to bring people together, get them talking, get them engaged. When they\u2019re working together using their hands, conversations start, and then relationships start. Those are the type of linkages we\u2019re looking for.\u201d<\/p>\n

She cites a recent example of how well this can work. The foundation backed Music 4 Life, a project joining the Sackville High School band with the mostly retired musicians from the local community band.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt really revitalized the music program in that school,\u201d Whetstone says. \u201cThe final concert was so moving. You could see eye contact going across stage between the kids and the older people. They\u2019d done exactly what we were looking for. There was a connection.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
