Thirty-seven years after its premiere, “The Rocky Horror Picture Show” remains a cult classic.

Segment 2:
Music, dance, theater and art can be moving, inspiring, troubling and prompt reflection in individuals. So what can the arts do on a larger scale? Westminster College’s new Center for the Arts hopes to find out. The center, to be located in the Old Garfield School in Salt Lake City, will work to promote the arts and arts education in the broader community. On Monday, we’ll find out more about the center’s mission and how engagement with art and artists can enhance neighborhoods and society.
