Advocacy Resources
Become an advocate and take action! We'll work together to secure funding for the arts!
As an advocate, you can use local media outlets to disseminate the facts and your opinions about the importance of the arts in your community. Use the Arts Action Center to determine who your local, state, and federal elected representatives are, how to contact them, and how to communicate with them effectively.
