new and exciting ways for us to experience vibrancy and togetherness, with art as the catalyst. Special thanks are in order to John Wieland and the JW Collection, who built the project at cost and poured so much heart into every bit of the process. The JW team took such care in preserving the history of the building, by using original materials to create features that transport and inspire. Elm Street Executive Director Christopher Brazelton joined forces with JW to create something truly special that even further demonstrates the excellence that occurs in collaboration. Elm Street takes enormous pride in building on the rich history of collaboration in this community, and plans to draw meaningful connections between the performing and visual arts, and the community at large. At Elm Street, we believe an inspired community can do more, and we have seen that vision come alive over the course of the Reeves House project. Propelled by purposeful collaboration, art has provided a pulse for this community, one that will continue to grow stronger as we go forward together.
