This past weekend was a marvelous display of community, friendship, music, talent, hard work, dedication and the tireless efforts of Jackie Dandeneau and David Ferney, who created the Arcata Playhouse and have expanded all that is good for the community to give us the Creamery District Arts Festival ("Reviving a Neighborhood," Aug. 15).

The Creamery Festival is described as "a community arts venue focusing on performance, education and community enrichment." They have given beautiful life to a part of Arcata and provided a venue where arts, music, dance, families and community can come together.

In the words of a song sung by the Arcata Interfaith Gospel Choir: Thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, Jackie and David.
