Racine was featured in a New York Times travel story yesterday as something of a Mecca for art and artists and architecture:

New York Times: “On Lake Michigan, a Port of Call for Art,” by Mary Billard

It’s a very nice piece, and as Dustin Block writes in his Racine Post Blog, it’s the third such Times story so far about the city’s development in a cultural direction. The civilizing influence of the arts is vital to the health of any community, and it’s thrilling to see it recognized here.
