artist with different views, that will help to inspire them as they work, and I believe the beauty of Allerton Park will inspire any form of artist. If I were to prescribe specific forms of artists to inhabit this space, then this pandering to one art form over another would prevent some artist from ever getting the opportunity to stay at the retreat.
