Number 4 - I was exploring Main Street in Lancaster a few days
ago when I came upon a large yellow building with a red awning.
Perhaps an old furniture store, it was mostly empty, but there
were some drawings displayed in one window. As I was taking a
photo of the drawings, Oscar Chastin popped out to see what I
was doing. We talked a little and after he agreed to participate
in my Strangers project, he told me he was getting the building
ready to be transformed into an artisans center. His daughter,
Christina, works for the Lancaster County Council of the Arts
and has been instrumental in the development of the new center.
She was working just around the corner and came over to explain
more about her plans for the center. I plan on following the project
closely and will post more about it as things move forward.
