Summary:

December 1992 Monograph (National Assembly of Local Arts Agencies)

Abstract: The world's largest cultural celebration is the Olympic Games. I use the term culture in two contexts. First, the Games bring more people and cultures (values and lifestyles) of the world together in peace and friendship than any activity of any kind. Second, the Olympic Games present the world's largest cultural (arts) festival. Unfortunately, the television-watching public only sees and hears about the sports competition and the national medal count. They miss the whole point. If we do not take advantage of the 1996 Olympic Games in Atlanta, we will miss an opportunity. (p. 1)
