How can we best help foster a strong, supportive environment for artists and creatives?

We’ll where I’m from the community is pretty good about keeping the open mic and singer songwriter nights going… everyone starts out playing there local towns and venues and as long as we have places and businesses that allow us creatives to play and showcase our talents I believe the rock n roll will stay rolling and rocking!
