New Jersey is proposing to cut cultural funding by 30%. Please contact your elected officials to tell them that the arts are critical to our kids' education, building community, teaching creative thinking, and giving us all a voice. Even in difficult economic times, there is no better return on investment--with New Jersey's cultural organizations and audiences contributing over $2 billion to our state economy and over $50 million in state tax revenues--and arts funding comes from a dedicated tourist tax that hasn't been cut!
