  • Hustle: Report from D.C.

    Join Elizabeth Rouse (ArtsMemphis), Abbey Judd (Levitt Shell), and Lauren Kennedy (UrbanArt Commission) as they discuss arts advocacy beyond NEA funding. After participating in National Arts Advocacy Day in D.C. this year, all three women were energized by legislative proposals to support the arts economy. The presentation will focus on areas of tax reform, the CREATE Act, artist visas, art education, the U.S. Department of Arts and Culture, and the Tennessee Arts Commission.

    The panelists will discuss where to find resources on arts advocacy and how to get involved in advocacy groups, and we'll participate in a postcard-writing campaign.
