From its elaborate murals to its eccentric music venues, the Southside of Bethlehem PA has come to be praised for its artistic qualities. Often referred to as the arts district of the Lehigh Valley, the Bethlehem Southside is home to many musical venues, unique restaurants, and community centers for the arts. I would love to explore this aspect of the Valley in a documentary. Specifically, I would love to explore the history of how the Southside has come to be an artistic center point. Furthermore, I want to discover the dynamics of the arts scene today and how they affect people who live in this community. I want to answer questions like who makes up the arts scene, what music is most popular, and how does the art scene impact the community? I am very into music and art and I think it would be cool learn about the scene in this area.
Long Line: I want to make a documentary about the art scene in the Lehigh Valley. I want to focus on the Southside of Bethlehem and explore how the art of scene has affected the culture and lives of the occupants there.
