The Center for a New American Dream envisions “… a focus on more of what really matters, such as creating a meaningful life, contributing to community and society, valuing nature, and spending time with family and friends.” Townsley and Provoast are active members in the community through photography and art, the neighborhood association and listening sessions, organizing donation opportunities during the holiday season at their storefront, and Avenue for the Arts First Friday events and planning. It’s more reflective of wherever I’m meant to be at this point,” says Townsley. “For the younger generation home is more of a moldable, shifting thing. The artist live and work spaces open the door to residents taking ownership of how they want to activate their space and involvement in the community, having the freedom and tools to do so.

Light Gallery + Studio is a place where community members and artists can utilize space for fine art exhibitions, shop and sell work of all varieties, and host and participate in workshops in the Heartside Neighborhood. “Home is what you surround yourself with, what is inspiring you, and how you express yourself.”- Erika Townsley, Co-Owner and Curator of Light Gallery + Studio.
