Recently, PBS redesigned the section of its main homepage dedicated to the arts programming featured on the network. The results are quite impressive and the hope is that this new site will "bring audiences directly into the creative process." The homepage has a Featured Art area that includes a digital remix of Mister Rogers singing, along with craft shows from the gifted Randall Darwall. The homepage also includes art submitted by viewers, along with a feed of "Chatter from the Art World" taken from a range of selected Twitter users. Next up, interested parities can use the Browse Genres area to view clips, demonstrations, and art-making activities that include juggling vases, edited and remixed music videos, and profiles of the art scene in places like Miami. Also, at the top of the homepage is a link to the Explore Exhibitions area, which features specially-created exhibitions on programs highlighting the Kansas City Symphony and Islamic architecture.
