These experiences can lead to great new memories. • Travel does not have to be overly expensive and can reduce anxiety and depression when you separate yourself from daily routines. Various steps have evolved to adapt to the changing needs for safe travel. At the time of publication, masks are worn when boarding and de-boarding and no one is to travel if not feeling well.

  • The Benefits and Limitations of Artist-Run Organizations in Columbus, Ohio
    THE BENEFITS AND LIMITATIONS OF ARTIST-RUN ORGANIZATIONS IN COLUMBUS, OHIO A Thesis Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Masters of Arts in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Melissa Ann Keeley, B.A. The Ohio State University 2008 Masters Examination Committee: Approved by: Dr. Wayne Lawson, Adviser Dr. Margaret J. Wyszomirski ____________________________________ Adviser Graduate Program in Arts Policy & Administration Copyright by Melissa Ann Keeley 2008 ABSTRACT The creative sector of any community provides important economic and social benefits. Research has shown that supporting a thriving arts and culture sector provides not only monetary returns on public investment but also helps create a positive image of a city that is in turn attractive to new businesses and a talented workforce. Furthermore, researchers have found that the presence of artists within a city is a good judge of a community’s cultural vitality and that cities should look to attract and retain artists to create new and innovative arts experiences while enhancing and building the creative capital within the community. However, attracting and retaining artists is not always easy. Artists are highly mobile and frequently leave “second tier” cities to move to the premier art cities of New York and Los Angeles. In order to attract and retain artists to a community like Columbus, Ohio the city needs to support organizations and groups that help develop a hospitable environment for artists. A hospitable environment includes access to studio space and equipment, peer support, ability to gain exposure and exhibit work, and also a high quality of life at a reasonable cost.

The 24-year-old Bulgarian is 26th in the Emirates ATP Rankings, the lowest he’s been since he entered the 2013 If Stockholm Open at No. 28. Dimitrov went on to defeat World No. 3 David Ferrer for the title, then repeated his run to the championship match in 2014 (l. to No. 7 Tomas Berdych). Just 11-11 since May 7, Dimitrov has yet to reach an ATP World Tour final this season. He opens his campaign against former junior rival Filip Krajinovic in the last match on Tuesday’s schedule. The winner of Dimitrov vs. Krajinovic will face either Finnish wild card Jarkko Nieminen or Daniel Muñoz-de la Nava, who also meet on Tuesday. With Mikael Ymer’s loss on Monday, Nieminen is the lone Scandinavian player left in what happens to be the last tournament of his career. The 34- year-old left-hander is retiring at the conclusion of the If Stockholm Open, where he reached the singles final in 2001, 2006 and 2011, as well as the doubles final with Johan Brunström of Sweden in 2010.

  • Open Tour Paris Is Resuming Service in the Capital Under the New Name Tootbus Paris
    Open Tour Paris is resuming service in the capital under the new name Tootbus Paris Paris, 15 June - Open Tour Paris, a subsidiary of RATP Dev and long-standing operator of tourist buses in the French capital, is announcing some changes as it reopens to the public on June 17. Following the COVID-19 pandemic and its severe impact on the tourism industry, Open Tour Paris is getting back to business with a renewed energy: a new brand, a new offer, a new application, and a wholly renewed fleet of buses that are now powered by electricity or bio-NGV. This strategy is very much focused on the city and aims to reforge the connection with tourists and Parisians alike. OPEN TOUR PARIS HAS TRANSFORMED INTO TOOTBUS PARIS, A REBRANDING THAT REPRESENTS A RENEWED AMBITION Open Tour Paris is now associated with our sightseeing services in Bath, Bristol, and London under the shared brand of Tootbus. The launch of this new identity underlines two main areas of focus for RATP Dev’s sightseeing business, which has been overhauled over recent months: • Firstly, a desire to embody a new positioning at the heart of the city and the role that Tootbus wishes to play in it. From the outset, the company has striven to be more than just a “transport provider”, but a real player in the tourism and entertainment sector, committed to creating unforgettable experiences for our customers. • Secondly, after a year-long pause due to COVID-19, we will be resuming our tourist bus operations under new conditions: o We will offer advanced digital services to simplify and improve the customer experience.
