Saving Camden

August 14, 2013Arts, Culture & Media

According to crime statistics from 2009, Camden, New Jersey ranks as America’s most dangerous city. Some residents are looking to the arts to try to turn the city around. With a new theater opening this month, we wondered if an arts district can really save Camden. Produced by Studio 360’s Peter Crimmins.
