Citron's Pro-Bono Work Helps Save Sculpture Center

"Collaboration Saved Stone-Sculpting Facility: Workers, lawyers keep popular site open", The Times

January 3, 2005

Marc A. Citron, a Partner in the Real Estate Department and Vice Office Managing Partner of the Princeton office, is featured in this article about efforts to keep a stone sculpture center open in Mercer County, N.J.

Mr. Citron was referred to the project by the Philadelphia branch of Volunteer Lawyers for the Arts. For nearly a year, he and another lawyer negotiated transactions that enabled sculptors who worked at the center to buy the equipment and reopen the center as Digital Stone Sculpture Inc.

"I had no connection to the project other than the fact that I'm a frequent visitor to the Grounds for Sculpture," Mr. Citron says in the article. "But here I had the opportunity to work with people who really needed help, to give back to the community. It was exciting. It's the creation of beauty, and it's nice to see. As an attorney, I deal with abstracts so frequently. It's nice to see creativity."
