"At every opportunity, when someone wants to show the best of the city, the best of the people or whatever, they wheel out the artist… that helped put a positive spin on things. And it’s just a pity that they couldn’t be reimbursed to the true extent of the value they represent to communities, the people, the mental health, to the day-to-day life."
