Fran Tarr, Founder/Director, Thoughts on 2016 Detroit

Dear 2016 artists, ambassador, associates and volunteers, So many good and beautiful thoughts race through my mind as I write these words. As each successive initiative closes I realize the ten-days we spend together as a creative community is a patchwork of tender, painful, joyous, funny, scary and sometimes tedious moments that draw us closer and make us stronger as individuals and as a movement. Yes, I do believe that after our experiences in Detroit we can absolutely say breaking walls is a movement thanks to the trust and love and talent each of you contributed. I am so proud to be your guide. All my love and respect.

As we say: ONWARD to Warsaw!
