You Are Here is The McKnight Foundation's second book about the development of the arts in Twin Cities suburbs. The first, A New Angle: Arts Development in the Suburbs, was meant to spur local dialogue about the emerging trend of suburban cultural development. You Are Here provides reflections on suburban cultural development since the publication of A New Angle; a map with a representative sample of incredible art places and happenings in the suburbs; and a series of profiles that explore how some of these places came into being. The book asserts that, although the region needs large institutions to set standards and act as cultural anchors, people also want arts experiences that are close to home and part of their daily lives. As our region continues to grow, more communities will take steps to build and show off their unique identities and amenities. We believe this will only make our entire region stronger. (From Publishers description) Authors for the case studies in this publication include Susan Banovetz, Marlina Gonzalez, Moira F. Harris, Thomas O'Sullivan, Mason Riddle, Robert Silberman, Shelly Willis, and Judy Woodward.
