Arts leaders say Mayor Nutter's administration is working on reconstituting the city's Office of Arts and Culture, which is exactly what the Mayor said he would do. Said one insider: "A lot of discussion is going on about what it's going to look like and who is going to run it. It's going to happen."
Nutter's predecessor abolished a separate Office of Arts and Culture, putting some of its activities under the Dept. of Commerce.
Arts. Commerce. Arts. Commerce. We're glad to see that our new mayor understands the distinction.
