In fact, Nashville ranks in the top 12 cities in the country for culture, arts and entertainment, while Business Week named Nashville one of the best places for artists to live in the United States. Therein lies why Nashville is the home of the most talented artists in the country. When you couple that with Nashville being ranked as the eighth strongest economy in the country, we find ourselves living in a very enviable community. The “Playbill” you hold in your hand is the visual voice of the arts, communicating the importance of the arts to the Nashville community. One of our favorite quotes regarding the arts is from Kathleen O’Brien, “We need the arts. They are not a luxury. They make us better people, and they are at the core of strong, vibrant communities”. How true. We thank our readers for being such an important part of the arts, and making Nashville such a strong, vibrant community! Enjoy the show!
