In Support of The Rye Arts Center’s Proposed Zoning Change ... from Vicki Tung

My family and I have had the benefit and enjoyment of many of Rye Art Center's offerings since we moved to Rye more than 10 years ago. My two children have taking drawing, music, STEM / roadblocks classes. We have participated in Comedy Night, jazz music concerts and many, many other programs. RAC is truly a gem in the community.

Expanding the Rye Arts Center is a crucial step in fostering a more vibrate and inclusive community. By modernizing and expanding RAC's space, the center can accommodate a wider range of artistic programs, exhibitions and workshops...making art more accessible to people of all ages and backgrounds. A larger space can also provide room for much needed newer technologies and contemporary art forms, ensuring that RAC remains relevant.

Approving the zoning petition will not only enhance the art center's capacity to serve but also reinforce the role of art as a catalyst for community development and engagement.
