What Art Does: An Unfinished Theory by Bette Adriaanse and Brian Eno is a fun and inspiring read. With charming illustrations throughout, the little book explores the question “Why do we need art?” It encouraged me to think more deeply about the creative process and why it is so important for communities to embrace the creation and appreciation of art. (We are so lucky in White Bear Lake to have access to many organizations that do this!) The authors remind readers of the wonder of a creative, playful mindset and invite us to imagine how that could become a part of everyday life, even in small ways.
