CALL TO ACTION!!!In an open letter from Neeta Delaney, President/CEO- ArtServe Michigan... Last Thursday, as part of ArtServe's advocacy work on your behalf, I testified before the Senate Appropriations Subcommittee on History, Arts and Libraries, to recommend FY 2009 funding of $14 million for the Michigan Council for Arts and Cultural Affairs. This is part of a long-term funding strategy for an incremental restoration of this funding to the 2002 level of $27 million over the same period of time it took to cut it to the current level of $7.7 million. Joining me was David Frey, chairman of the Frey Foundation, and Eileen Weiser, former MCACA council member and former Michigan Department of Education State Board of Education member. All three of us testified about the importance of the arts, culture, and arts education to our state's ability to not only survive these economically and socially challenging times, but to thrive in the future.
While our messages were well received by the committee, we're now at the part of the budgeting process where we absolutely must have your help! Without your voices, our messages will carry little weight. Please take the time to e-mail or call the members of the Senate Appropriations Subcommittee on HAL listed below. Let them know that you value and support arts and culture in Michigan, and ask them to support funding for the MCACA at $14 million for FY2009. For your convenience, we suggest you go directly to the advocacy section of ArtServe's Web site ( www.artservemichigan.org/advocacy), and click on Arts & Culture Advocacy Toolkit. Senate Appropriations Subcommittee on HAL: Tom George (Chair), sentgeorge@senate.michigan.gov, 517-373-0793 Cameron Brown, sencbrown@senate.michigan.gov, 517-373-5932 Irma Clark-Coleman, seniclark-coleman@senate.michigan.gov, 517-373-0990 There are only a few days left until the Senate Appropriations Subcommittee arrives at its funding recommendation, so your communications are critically important. If possible, please blind copy (BCC) ArtServe's Director of Advocacy, Mike Latvis, at mike@artservemichigan.org so we can track the number of communications sent. We're counting on you!!! |

After this, the selected works will be delivered to the Alden B.
