When it comes to making art, both the presenters and the audience are involved. The idea of the audience as making art may be an unexpected idea. We're all familiar with artists of the visual world. Painters. Sculptors. Installation artists. We're familiar with artists who compose, play and perform music. And artists who dance, and stage and film actors. Writers are artists. But then there is
the audience. People who appreciate what they see and what they hear.
You can think of the audience in the way the poet T.S. Eliot did: 
Below is a listing of presentations by artists. You the audience are cordially invited to these many venues to see and hear, while the music lasts.
