Culture is the lifeblood of a vibrant society, expressed in the many ways we tell our
stories, celebrate, remember the past, entertain ourselves, and imagine the future.
Our creative expression helps define who we are, and helps us see the world through
the eyes of others. In addition to its intrinsic value, culture provides important social
and economic benefits. With improved learning and health, increased tolerance, and
opportunities to come together with others, culture enhances our quality of life and
increases overall well-being for both individuals and communities. Culture is also a
means of expressing creativity, forging an individual identity, and enhancing or
preserving a community’s sense of place.
