Arts Advocacy Day

Just last week... or the week before... or the middle of March... anyway, recently our own Melanie Spillman joined a group of local arts administrators for a trip to Nashville for Arts Advocacy Day. It is an annual event organized by Tennesseans for the Arts, and it gives individuals from all over the state a chance to visit with members of the legislature to talk about the importance of the arts. Become a member of Tennesseans for the Arts and you get a subscription to their newsletter, The Arts Advocate; email Action Alerts about important arts issues; and invitations to Arts Advocacy Day and the Governor's Awards in the Arts.



That's Mel with Senator Mark Norris and other arts advocates.
