Your voice is needed! Join actor Alec Baldwin at Arts Advocacy Day 2011:

  • Hear from congressional leaders and acclaimed artists at the Congressional Arts Kick Off on Capitol Hill.
  • Make the case for the arts and arts eduction to your members of Congress.
  • Be a part of more than 500 of your fellow advocates from across the country.

The arts are being threatened. In the last month, the U.S. House of Representatives has voted to slash funding for the National Endowment for the Arts by $43 million and terminate the Arts in Education programs at the U.S. Department of Education for FY 2011. It is imperative that arts advocates come together through events like Arts Advocacy Day to let Congress know that these cuts and terminations are unacceptable.
