A word from Steve Stachini

I am just one of millions who has been in�uenced and impacted by the life, workand creativity of David Bowie. As we all know and appreciate, music and art bringspeople together, has the power to change the world, combat social issues, and is aperpetual catalyst for pushing the boundaries of creative exploration. The arts also give that humanitarian feel good factor as well as promptingdiscussion, debate and celebration on a global scale with sometimes unexplicableemotional attachment. Events such as the Bowie Art Fest are essential for ourmoral and social responsibilities and the well being of future creative development.
