Notes taken at the Candy Factory Community Forum on April 28, 2005.
Non-profit arts revitalize downtowns
Serves diverse, underserved populations
Meetings, rehearsals, etc.
Centrally located
Interaction occurs between groups
Need a place to practice
Relocation of users
Creative possibilities
Grants?
Heartbreaking to see building gone
Opportunity to invest in Knoxvilles art scene
Local community groups need a place to meet
Need alternative site
Other cities dont have anything similar
Dance studio space hard to find
Recreation centers booked
Where do we go?
Keep status quo of building
Other cultures honor their artists
Loss to UT art curriculum
Building alive with children all the time
"Other" space is not comparable space
