From "Passion-ists" to Professionals....The Subaru A New View Artist Apprentices made a splash in Camden, NJ.

 “This is the beginning of our identity.” Donald Williams, an educator-artist for over 20 years in Camden, describes the A New View Art Installation as an artistic reimagination of Camden. The 6 short-term public art installations, aptly titled,  “A New View - Camden”,  are challenging community members and visitors to see the city with more dimension.

"Once Hidden Artists Now Become Public," By Loan Nguyen
