"Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful, committed citizens can change the world.

Indeed, it is the only thing that ever has"

INTRODUCTION

Government is a slow and tedious process. While it often includes citizen and neighborhood involvement, non-governmental, private organizations have created movements and interesting groups which can create positive change in our cities and towns.

I am fascinated by the way groups are created and how they influence public decision making. This blog merely recognizes them and forwards the description of these groups from their own websites.

Downtown Doodles

Location: Columbus, IN

Website: www.artsincolumbus.org/caac/index.cfm/calendar/downtown-doodles-exhibit

Columbus Area Arts Council (Indiana)

A community-based art project to celebrate National Arts & Humanities Month, October 1–15

October is National Arts and Humanities Month and we wanted to celebrate. So, we've created a community-based art project. From October 1–15, visit one of the participating downtown restaurants, grab a special napkin and pen, and start doodling. There's no pressure to create a masterpiece. Just take some time to create something.

During the month of November, we will have a display at Hotel Indigo's gallery of the doodles. A public reception is planned for Thursday, November 8 at 5:30 PM.

Participating restaurants include Bistro 310, The Garage Pub & Grill, Smith's Row, 4th Street Bar, Zaharakos, Tre Bicchieri, and The Fork.
