What is your own vision for Peterborough?

My vision for Peterborough is for it to be a brighter,even more beautiful place.I would love to see more art with in the centre.The world needs beauty, color, and light, and visual art can provide those things and more.Art allows us to see through the eyes of the artist or photographer, or see a place we've never been. It can be educational; a recording of history, or it can simply capture the feeling of a moment in time. Some artworks provide social commentary and bring about empathy in the viewers. Art enhances our experience, especially if it expresses emotion or ideas. Sometimes it is the amazing skill of the artist that enthralls the viewers. Artworks enhance homes, businesses, and public spaces.

One thing you'd like to change about the place?
