Arts Hall of Fame coming?

“It’s extremely preliminary. The closest model we can go after is the Sports Hall of Fame and the city partners with the Sports Hall of Fame in the sense that we provide them spaces to display their various pictures and awards and that type of thing. And of course, we’re always really happy to chat with them and try and help them along the process.”

It’s a community that is much larger than many realize, not being as overt as the sporting world. Having dabbled in the arts himself, it’s something Andy Beesley can attest to.

“I think that Prince George’s got a lot of remarkable things. Many people like myself, moved here decades ago to put in a year and get the heck out. And then we found that we really grew to love the community. And one of the things that I discovered with Prince George is there is a very rich and diverse and incredibly deep arts community here, all the way from artists to drama to theater, etc. It’s more than meets the eye, but the people that know about that are the people that are involved, not necessarily the general public as a whole.”

He says, often the only people who know about the robust arts community are those directly involved with it.
