Arts Advocacy Day in Washington, DC

ARTS BUILD COMMUNITIES

There is no better way to emphasize the importance of the Arts in our communities than through the personal stories of arts organizations across the Commonwealth. Taking the time out of your busy schedule to visit legislators at our Nation’s Capitol is the most valuable advocacy that can be done.

Bring your friends and colleagues to demonstrate that the arts is a force that benefits Virginia’s economy, education, and tourism.
