Dear Colleagues,
Please call your Representative this week and urge him/her to support Amendment 417 and stop the cuts to arts and cultural funding through the MCC.
Last week, Rep. Sarah Peake of Provincetown, House Chair of the Joint Committee on Tourism, Arts, and Cultural Development, filed Amendment 417 to hold cultural funding at this year’s level of $9.1 million. The amendment would reverse a proposed $1.6 million cut to MCC’s budget contained in the House Ways & Means Committee’s version of the state budget for fiscal year 2012.
Contact your Representative before the full House debates begins on April 25.
For the latest MCC budget news, please visit our Advocacy Action Center.
Thank you for your advocacy. It makes an extraordinary statement about the value of our collective work.
Sincerely, |
 |

Anita Walker Executive Director Massachusetts Cultural Council |
