   Comments: As a member of the Cultural Alliance of Greater Washington's board and a lifelong supporter of the arts, plus a video company owner which qualifies me as an "artist" I strongly urge you to restore and/or increase funding for the arts in our community. Not only is increased arts' funding good business for the community, it enriches our souls, especially as the economy is struggling to recover. We need your help, Mayor Gray. Thank you for your support.

    Comments: The arts make a huge difference in our city and employ thousands upon thousands. Also, the impact on our city's children can not be understated. Can the arts receive at least 1% of the annual budget? we will be sure to use the funds wisely...

    Comments: As a poet, Ward 4 resident, and director of Split This Rock, an organization that brings poetry to city residents 365 days per year while fostering and sustaining DC poets, both adult and youth, I urge you to restore DC Commission on the Arts funding. These small funds make a tremendous difference to small and medium-sized arts organizations, which enrich our city's life immeasurably. We help our citizens tell the story of our city and imagine a rich and creative life for our future. Please support the arts! Sincerely, Sarah Browning

    Comments: Please restore DCCAH funding now! Arts are at the center of good things returning to our neighborhoods. In addition to the money slashed for DCCAH, the National Capital Arts and Cultural Affairs Program went from $14 million down to just $4 million. All art organizations are chasing funds from the same pool, and these groups are vital to our community. Think of 14th St before Studio Theater, H. St NE before the Atlas, etc. Music, theater, dance are at the center of a ripple effect that bring great things to all of DC. Please restore funding now!

    Comments: Greater resources for arts education are vital for DC's future. Most of the members of the DC Arts and Humanities Education Collaborative depend on the Commission's support in order to provide high-quality programs for thousands of DC public school and charter public school students each year. As a partner of the Commission, the DC Arts and Humanities Education Collaborative provides access to our members arts and humanities experiences for 30,000 public school students each year. This access to the arts and humanities is made possible by the Commission. In today's creative, information-based economy, arts education is vital for job readiness. Arts Education keeps students engaged and learning across content areas; leads to higher graduation rates; and contributes to the healthy development of the whole child. Without appropriate funding for the Commission --so that it can in turn support the cultural community offering arts education-- DC cannot fufill its promise as a world-class arts city, providing a world-class education to its students.
