The Arts Advocacy Day Conference will take place March 25-26, 2003.
This past year, arts advocates succeeded in securing increased funding for both the National Endowments for the Arts and for the Humanities, as well as increased funding for arts education programs within the U.S. Department of Education. Arts Advocacy Day is strategically timed to give grassroots advocates the opportunity to shape federal arts policy and to educate Members of Congress. The 2002 elections and redistricting brought a new freshman class of House of Representative members who will need early educational visits from grassroots constituents about the importance of the arts and culture.
Arts Advocacy Day is held in conjunction with the Congressional Arts Caucus and many Members of Congress will be involved in the day's events. Additionally, more than 65 national arts, humanities, educational, and civic organizations co-sponsor this event annually.
