Is GPAC Already Hurting Existing Arts Venues?

From today's News & Record:

"Triad Stage will start the new year with a clean financial slate, if it receives $13,191 more in contributions by Friday to erase its deficit. "

Just think of the money Triad Stage could have raised if almost a $Million Dollars of combined public and private money had not been wasted on the GPAC folly in the last 12 months. And tell me, isn't the roof still leaking on the historic Carolina Theater a year later? You know once a roof starts to leak it isn't long before the entire building begins to crumble.

You can bet the folks behind the Downtown Greensboro Aquarium will never forsake the rest of Greensboro just to get our way. You see, all of Greensboro is why we are trying to build the aquarium.
