They believe that the arts are a society’s most deliberate and complex means of communication, and that artists and those who work in the arts can help nations overcome long histories of reciprocal distrust, insularity and conflict. With solid expertise and lasting partnerships in 27 countries, CEC ArtsLink promotes communication and understanding through collaborative, innovative projects for mutual benefit. CEC was founded in 1962 to enable citizens of the United States and the Soviet Union to accomplish what their governments could not – opening doors, sharing ideas and building mutual trust. In today’s transformed and complex world, citizen diplomacy is still urgently needed.</SPAN></FONT><BR><BR><BR><BR><FONT face=Arial color=navy size=2><SPAN style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; COLOR: navy; FONT-FAMILY: Arial"></SPAN></SPAN></FONT></P>
