I am quickly re-posting instructions for getting in touch with your representative to let them know we won’t stand for the cutting the arts.  We have been the scapegoat, the punching bag, while we continue to improve our communities and people’s lives on a daily basis. 

Please send a quick letter/post/tweet today! 

  1. Write to your Representative: http://bit.ly/fIQsbC
  2. Write to your Senator: http://bit.ly/fIQsbC
  3. Write to your local media:
    • Newspapers by State: http://www.newslink.org/statnews.html
    • Radio: Use Radio-Locator: http://www.radio-locator.com/
    • Television Stations by State: http://www.newslink.org/stattele.html

4. Write a tweet! You can use your zip code to find out if your representative or senator is on Twitter: http://www.tweetcongress.org/

5. Post these instructions on Twitter/Facebook, etc. for others to get involved.

Thank you for speaking up and becoming an arts advocate!

-Shoshana
