Today's comment of the day comes from Daniel in regards to Alec Clayton's Rebirth of a city feature about photographer Peter Serko, his exhibit at the Museum of Glass and MOG's importance to the City of Tacoma.

Daniel writes,

MOG may be losing money, but it has been absolutely essential to the revitalization of downtown and the arts district. UWT is - to be sure - important, but insufficient. UWT is a commuter campus and is closed on the weekend; without a complimentary effort downtown would look like UW Seattle's Ave, that is to say dead on the weekends. MOG is an essential part of the downtown Tacoma's arts "brand", presenting nice synergy with TAM and the theater district.
