First Person with G. Byron Peck of City Arts DC

Read Artworks - NEA - First Person with G. Byron Peck of City Arts DC « Art Work 

National Endowment for the Arts

I founded City Arts DC in 1997 in order to continue the work I had begun under the auspices of DC Artworks, a nonprofit arts organization that supervised the District Mayor’s Summer Youth Program for the arts in conjunction with the Department of Employment Services. In 1996, DC Artworks closed its doors and City Arts was established to continue serving the District’s young people.
